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
I teach in a small rural school with students from grades 6-12 who face challenges every single day. We want students to come to school everyday ready to learn and be successful, but we lack some resources for our students to use daily.
We have a diverse group of students who are creative, intelligent, and passionate.
Our school is a rural, low-income school. Our students work hard every day to do their best to make positive changes in their lives.
My Project
Personal hygiene can affect a person's confidence. This project is aimed at helping students with basic necessities that are needed to begin the day. The goal of this project is to create a comfort closet of necessary hygiene items needed on a daily basis. This closet will provide comfort and confidence to students. The necessities we are looking for include: deodorant, toothbrushes, and other personal healthy snacks that students can use at school and/or take home as needed.
Our goal is to build student confidence.
Students should feel comfortable at school and our closet will provide basic care products that will ensure they can focus on their education.
