My Students

Almost all 800 of our students are living in apartments. Our students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds with over 85% of our students receiving free lunch. Students have the option to receive free breakfast daily through a program at the school that is open to all students.

Our school has a diverse population of students from various countries who speak a variety of different languages.

Many students will come to our school for the first time without having previously learned to speak English.

I have assisted our school in providing a variety of resources such as weekend food bags for students, free eye care and exams, dental screenings, a free food pantry, and a clothing closet.

My Project

At our school, we firmly believe that it is our job and our duty to support all aspects of life. Health and hygiene are at the utmost importance to supporting the whole scholar. This project will allow our hygiene closet to be restocked. The hygiene products that are needed are for students hair so they are ready for the day. Some teachers assist in styling those that need some extra hair love.

The less time scholars have to be concerned about health or hygiene matters, the more time they have to focus on learning.
