My Students

Welcome! Our students are our most valued assets. With that being said, they live in a low-income area and many of them have not had experiences of the average privileged child, with their limited income comes limited resources.

Due to the current circumstances and having to retrain our students from being out of school and learning virtually I find it difficult to connect to the students with the pressure of being safe from Covid and not being able to really be with their friends.

My Project

Masks are now a part of our everyday life! The students at our school sometimes arrives with no mask or loose their masks throughout the day. The administration tries to provide the masks for the students as they can.

This project will alleviate the stress and allow the students to have the masks and sanitation wipes that they need so they can socialize and be around their peers and teachers without feeling like they are jeopardizing anyone or themselves from getting sick.

This would be a great gift for our students to have.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
