My Project
Every year, my students come to school excited to learn and be part of a special classroom community! With this project funded, we hope to get more materials that support student voice and welcome the diversity within our school!
These crayons, markers, construction paper, and picture books will help us highlight the beauty of diversity in our class!
Maybe you remember being in elementary school, coloring a self-portrait, or making a picture of you and your family. But there wasn't a color that matched your actual skin tone. With this project funded, we can help our students experience finding a skin tone that actually represents them!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
