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
I am very excited to be teaching at a new school this year. I will be the cultural arts teacher. As shown in my school info, nearly all students come from a low-income family. I have learned that low income does not speak of the quality of students. I have some very intelligent, very eager to learn students. Across the nation, schools are struggling to provide resources the students need due to state and federal budget cuts. My students deserve the best, and I am their advocate to make sure they get the best. We are making huge strides to improve in all aspects and the students deserve to have new books, new pieces of technology, and new life experiences to further help them succeed in school and life.
My Project
This is not your average project- we are requesting the supplies to build a rolling coffee cart. We are a Leader In Me School. We are constantly looking for way to create Leadership Roles that provide real responsibility for the students. After brainstorming with my Lighthouse team, we have come up with this idea of a rolling coffee bar. We are requesting a Keurig, K Cups for hot cocoa and coffee, all of the condiments, cups, an organizer and a rolling cart. This project would cover several of our weaknesses this year for our lighthouse team. We truly lack in parental involvement. Parents love coffee. This would provide us an incentive to parents attending meetings and events if we were able to have the students play barista and serve coffee. We would also be able to use this for parental involvement events like the Polar Express night coming up where we serve hot cocoa to everyone. We have selected a Keurig because it is something out students will be able to manage unlike pouring cups of coffee from a coffee pot. We are very excited to be able to these jobs and services as part of our Leader in Me responsibilities. Thank you so much for reading and supporting our young leaders.
