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 Students

Martin Luther King, Jr stated that “The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education.”

My students come from a poverty stricken neighborhood riddled with violence, low income housing, and trauma.

ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) is prevalent in their community and has generational effects. Despite their circumstances my students are intelligent, caring, well-mannered and inquisitive. They have a sense of purpose and want to achieve more than what their community can offer.

My Project

As a result of the COVID-19 crisis, students have been forced to learn from home in a Virtual Setting. This has impacted our students emotionally and has weakened their motivation to learn in these difficult times. By acquiring these materials I will be able to teach my students virtually coping strategies, increase motivation, and provide them with one on one and group sessions.

Distance learning has been especially difficult for students to learn how to cope with grief, emotional instability and ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences).

The donated materials will help me teach my students more effectively and they will have the ability to reach me uninterrupted due to power failures and lost connections. The equipment provided to me by my school has a low charge and constantly loses connections causing an interruption in student learning and virtual classroom sessions and check-ins.
