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

We are a Title I school where we offer free breakfast and lunch to all children. Our third grade​ scholars live in a high poverty neighborhood. Our community is located in an inner-city area. 85% of our students identify as African American, 5% Latino, 2% White, 1% Asian, and 9% Multi-Racial.

Labels and test scores do an injustice to our scholars and teachers.

My scholars and I refuse to accept failure. If you could see our children, you would understand that they are full of potential and that they are future leaders and innovators. Our students are perseverant, motivated, enthusiastic, and driven to succeed. We will bridge the poverty gap, and they will achieve!

My Project

Winter is upon us! Today, when we left for the day, four inches of snow had fallen, and none of our children had hats, gloves, or scarves! Some of our scholars only had hoodies to keep them warm! Jack Frost is nipping at our noses and we need help to keep warm during the frigid winter season! Our children need sets of hats, scarves, and gloves to protect them from the elements. Many of our students' families cannot afford to provide their children with uniforms, let alone necessary accessories such as winter gear. Please help our students to stay warm and healthy!
