Making the Best of Summer School

Help me give my students the best opportunity to be successful during summer school.

My Project

In our charter school, which serves an underserved community that is often overlooked, we frequently struggle to provide some of the basic resources our students need. These items will help improve the learning environment and support group activities, making learning more engaging and enjoyable for students. The goal is to give each student opportunities to take the lead in problem-solving and collaborative learning.

Because this for summer school, we want learning to be enjoyable while also helping to prevent the summer academic drop that often occurs when students are out of school for extended periods of time.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
