Celebrating Black History Month

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 have the pleasure of being an intervention specialist this year. I service students in the first through the fourth grades, helping the students fill in their previous learning gaps so that they can be successful from this school year forward.

Helping individual children know success is my ultimate goal.

These students come from very diverse backgrounds. They live in a suburban area that is about 30 miles outside of Atlanta. Most of the students are economically disadvantaged and therefore, receive free lunch.

My Project

My students are in need of the basic necessities to finish the school year with a bang. We are in need of pencils, paper, erasers, pencil sharpeners, and a pencil pouch to hold them in.

Please help me to provide these basics.

As the year progresses, it becomes more difficult to get supplies sent in. That leaves the teacher to buy the necessary supplies for learning for all of their students. I am trying to provide the necessities for two classes worth of students. It becomes a little difficult to keep up with the demand. I would greatly appreciate your help in this matter.
