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 Students

During the 2019-2020 school year, students at Manual High School experienced a 39% chronic absenteeism rate, a 44% mobility rate, and a 70% graduation rate. We are ranked in the lowest 5% of Illinois schools for achievement. The percentage of students qualifying for free and reduced lunch programs is listed at 93% of the total enrollment of 595 students, with an ethnicity breakdown of 67% Black, 17% Hispanic, 9% White, and ~7% Two or More Races.

This project will benefit students in our Options alternative graduation program.

It is comprised of students that do not have enough credits to graduate using traditional means. Options students engage in a work-study curriculum that helps them develop post-graduation plans, employable job skills, civic responsibility, and social-emotional elements in a self-contained classroom environment.

My Project

Every two weeks, students in Options are encouraged to attend an important in-person HiSET testing session. However, many have been sleeping through their cell phone alarms.

To improve test-day attendance, the requested outlet-plug-in alarm clock should provide the appropriate volume to properly wake students up in the morning.

The 9v batteries accompany this purchase.

The earbuds will help reduce surrounding distractions while students check-in remotely each school day. They can be used to speak with teachers through our MS Teams check-ins or to engage in online learning platforms related to instruction.
