My Project
For my students, I'm requesting water and water bottles. My class consists of 25 smart, and energetic first grade. I teach in a Title 1 school and 100% of my students receive free lunch. My students come from low socioeconomic homes, and many of my students struggle to bring water to school.
Mississippi faces various challenges, and one of them is the inadequate access to clean drinking water, particularly in school.
My students live in underserved communities and lack access to reliable and safe water sources. This issue not only affects their overall health but also hinders their ability to focus on education and academic success.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
