Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Even with our best efforts to care for our items, our headphones need to be replenished for next year.

As our students enter school next year, they will all need a new set of headphones.

This project will make that possible for them when they begin their new school year. Each student has an individual Chromebook assigned to them, and this project will allow students to be assigned a set of headphones too.

We also need to replace our floor spots for next year to help students know exactly where to stand in line. Lastly, the students will need new pencil pouches for their school supplies and this project will make that possible.

Thank you in advance for providing our supplies needed for next school year. Smiles!
