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 Project

Out with the old and in with the new! It's time to redecorate our gym, it's way overdue!!!! It can be time consuming and quite the hassle to use the one shared printer in our school. Unfortunately, we do not have a shredder, so getting rid of old documents can be a little difficult. The shredder requested will help us get rid of outdated paperwork and decorations around the gym. The printer will be beneficial in providing more color to our gym space and giving our students more appealing and engaging visuals. With a printer, planning and preparing activities for will be more efficient.
