My Project

Just four months before the end of the school year, I would like to provide all the necessary, motivational tools for them to stay focused and complete this year. The resources for this project will provide that incentive for them so they can get motivated, stay on track, and accomplish with great success. For every assignment and project they complete, they will be celebrated as they receive what they have worked for so far. The certificates, intangible rewards, and be recognized in our school public announcement. This project will do just that!

Mr. Tadesse Holmquist Elementary School Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
