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 Students
On a typical day in my library students browse books, spend time in our maker space area working with manipulatives, playing board games, working on the LEGO wall, using our laptops for research purposes, working on homework, and many other numerous activities encouraging individual or collaborative student time. ID badges are needed for most access at our school. One challenge since being hit by two hurricanes (Matthew and Florence) is some of our students lost whole homes and all possessions, therefore, losing their student ID badges and lanyards. For safety and security reasons we want our students to have their student ID badges displayed at all times. We can and will provide replacement badges but the students need lanyards. Please help.
I have the pleasure to serve as the Media Specialist for a Positive Behavior Support School in a low performing middle school in a lower income community.
It is a Title I school of 768 students. Demographically it is made up of 85 percent African American children with 100 percent of our students receiving free breakfast and lunch. I am in a school where the principal is a strong advocate of safety and security.
My Project
My students must have a student ID badge and lanyard every day upon entering the school building. Each ID badge has the student's name, picture, and student ID number. For safety and security reasons, we want students to display their ID badge around their neck. We want to make sure we know who needs to be in our building and who needs to stay out. These students are our number one priority. Badges are used for identification, to purchase lunch, to check out library books, to access computers, and numerous other student-related activities. We can and will supply the student ID badges but need your help securing lanyards for our students.
