My Project

Sometimes students get discouraged and lose motivation as the year progresses. Some of them do not have the vision of success and give up or drop out when they are so close to the finish line. It is important for students to be able to see themselves as they could be. We are requesting tassels for graduation.

Students who can see themselves as successful will work harder to achieve the goal.

I teach a combination of sophomores and juniors (mostly juniors) who need the inspiration to continue working, even when it is hard or boring. Help me give my students a literal reflection of themselves as high school graduates.
