My Project

The students at my high school are great kids! However, they are the kids that always need something! That is 100% okay because all of the teachers, staff, and community (you included!) work so hard at helping them out. Typically students in my school come from very low income households that need additional support at home as well.

I would like to provide my students with the face masks that they request when they are feeling sick or just are not comfortable with not wearing them in the classroom.

I ran out of all the masks that I received last school year this past week and am working through some that I purchased on my own. I also would like to provide additional pencils for students who need them. I have run low on my stash and will be completely out soon.

Providing these tools for success for out students will ensure they are more focused on learning and less focused on what they don't have when they need it. Thank you for all of your continued support of our school!
