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 Project

The materials and supplies I am requesting for my students will help us to finish the year and also be ready for the next school year.

Requesting supplies now will help us better prepare and ensure that our students have everything they need to excel in their studies.

Not every family has the financial means to supply their child with all of the required school supplies or the "extras" such as headphones, markers, hand sanitizer, digital timer, paper towels, and pencil pouches. Yet, my students show up every day eager and ready to learn.

By donating to my project, you are helping me to match their enthusiasm for learning and the right to a quality education, as well as, investing in the future by improving the resources available to my students and lessening the burden myself and my students feel.

Ms. Tabourn
Grades 3-5
