Brightly colored murals, beautiful garb, fresh fruits and vegetables at the corner market, and the smell of delicious Indian food coming from the nearby kitchen; this is the environment my students live in.
We have a beautiful neighborhood that embodies the Indian culture.
Unfortunately, my school is in a low-income neighborhood. Many of my students, a diverse mix of cultures too, attend a school that strives to give these eager students who are ready to learn, an excellent education. Many of them are first-generation Americans and are excited to begin school.
My Project
As a teacher, I am always striving for my students to always do their best work. After completion of a writing assignment or project in social studies or science, I see how proud my kiddos are of their success. The smile on their faces is priceless!
Being able to provide my kiddos with a variety of colored paper is a basic classroom need!
A laminator machine is also a staple for every classroom. Kiddos should be able to have their work and accomplishments last! These basic classroom materials would help a classroom run on success!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
