My students are fun and respectful! Just like my colleagues, the staff at our school are so grateful for everything that is happening in this place every day. Over 75% of our students have known each other for over five years because they come from the same feeder elementary school. Our students know each other really well because they grow up together and they know how to respect each other. This is rare because we are an inner city school in the center of Boston, where the mobility rate is extremely high. As a Title I city school, we are proud to say that our attendance is above 90% on average. Occasionally, our 8th graders will reach a 100% attendance. Academically, they are outstanding! They strive to work for good grades. In the last term, over 80% of our eighth graders were Honorable Mention or above. My students and my school are amazing! They motivate me to reach out for additional resources for them! Please consider helping us!
My Project
My students are hungry all the time and some of them just cannot afford to get a treat of pizza often. The pizzas will make a difference in my students' learning and improve their school lives as they can bond and build a great relationship during the holidays. Most of our students are from a low income family and having pizza is the most welcoming lunch food that they can have. However, pizza is not served everyday in our cafeteria. During the time right before Thanksgiving and Christmas vacation, it'll be nice if they can have a pizza party to make them feel happy about school! I am sure my students will be very grateful for their holidays with your gift! Please consider helping us out!
