My Project

Our school's health office sees a wide range of students! Every student should arrive at school for success and stay at school to succeed.

The students at our school need your help!

Students should not arrive at school hungry because their bus was late that they didn't have time to eat breakfast. We want every student to be able to learn to the best of their ability with a full stomach.

Students should not be embarrassed or ashamed if they had an accident or spilt something and need new clothes. A change of clothes is necessary to allow them to continue his or her day and be comfortable.

Mrs. KIRBY Theodore Lester Elementary School Grades PreK-2

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