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

My students require an effective way to transport important documents that go from school to home. Some parents do not have access to wi-fi or a computer. This requires that we utilize paper copies of resources to ensure that parents are receiving critical information.

Messages must be delivered safely in each student's folder.

Parents may need assignments and notices translated. Again, they may not have digital access to technology in order to receive important news about their child. Paper copies must make it home to parents or guardians. Having durable folders will allow students to safely keep everything in one place.
