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

At JMEMS, we have been working really hard to change to narrative surrounding gifted education in underserved populations. And guess what? We are doing just that! Since September 2023 our gifted population has more than doubled! What does this mean for us? We need more resources so we can continue to flourish!

Students identified as Gifted and Advanced Learners have specialized learning needs.

They have to be challenged mentally, and this project is a great way for them to learn through the use of logic and problem solving activities and games. I am also requesting snacks for motivation and energy.
