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

Please help my students to have the necessary tools they need to keep their work on point - pencils! My students are from an economically disadvantaged district and basic supplies like pencils are not available to them. My students like to be able to keep their work correct and organized. Many students feel this can best be accomplished with the use of a pencil to correct any issues they might be experiencing.

The metal storage cabinet with a lock will allow me to store supplies for my classes in the classroom in a neat and organized way.

Having supplies easily accessible in the classroom will allow for ease in retrieving necessary supplies for student success.
