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

Our 5th graders work hard daily. Many of them are highly creative and love to interact with people. We would like to give them an outlet to bring this work to life by creating our school's morning news. We would like to give them a space in our media center with the proper equipment like microphones, green screens, recording devices, and tripods so that they can create the best media productions they can create!

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their creative potential.

We will use these announcement recordings to share the ins and outs of our school with our students and staff. Our goal is for students to be able to conduct interviews around school and connect more effectively with the curriculum of the Media Arts Department at our school.
