My Project

Our building is a single gender Afrocentric school that is located in Cleveland Ohio. We are a Title I school. Creating our own spirit items, we will be able to save some money. It is expensive to pay for the set ups where we have the ability to design our own items.

This project is to enable our school to create their own t-shirts for the boys to wear for spirit wear.

We are also planning on making hats and cups with the school logo. The boys will also learn about economics and become young entrepreneurs.
