My Students

My school is considered a Title I, low income, school. This means over 2/3 of our students qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. We have a wonderful community here and a lot of diversity per classroom. Out of 80 students in our grade level, about 60 of them speak another language or have a different language backgrounds.

They are all very hard working, lovable, and kind students.

Seat sacks will help give our students a resource for them to organize their belongings and keep those items safe and well kept.

My Project

Seat sacks are a great way for students to organize their materials. This helps them learn independence and responsibility. Our students don't have a lot of things that are just theirs, seat sacks would be a resource for them to keep their things safe and well kept. Our students have Chromebooks that they use daily. Seat sacks are a necessity for storage and accessibility to their Chromebooks. Seat sacks are something that are used for many years, because of their expense. They are not only an investment in our classroom, but a necessity for our students.
