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 Students
Our school is a safe haven, a place where kids can work toward a common goal. Our students need somewhere safe to be, a place off of the tough, local streets. Kids learn commitment, teamwork, and pride, as well as academic skills.
I am the 7-12 chorus teacher, as well as the assistant marching band director and the K-12 gifted teacher.
Our students are vibrant and love to be the center of attention. All of the students in our school receive free breakfast and lunch, and there are after-school activities that serve extra meals so kids don't go hungry.
Our budget is non-existent. Our building is old and hasn't been updated much since it was originally built in the early 1900s. Sounds like a great place for modern learners, right?
My Project
I am looking to add these silver sequin suspender and bow tie combos to the concert dress for my Show Choir. My students will wear black dress shirts and dress pants, and these sequins will make them pop on stage. They're so excited to be wearing these amazing outfits, this is a brand new class that has never been in existence before, so they want to show off.
I've worked for the past 3 years to rebuild the choral program at my school.
I have taken it from 12 kids to 3 separate ensembles of approximately 25 students each, which sounds small but we are mighty. With your help, I can make them look as good as they sound.
