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 students are Hispanic and African-American. They are limited in resources, with over 90% of them qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
We try our best to create an environment that is safe and open while giving them meaningful experiences to enhance their lives.
Many of our students are also teen parents or dealing with identity issues. Due to those factors and lack of resources, many of them are on their own with the responsibility to find shelter and food.
Our students find ways to get creative with limited supplies. They are thankful for new things and look forward to being exposed to new things. Our students come to school for stability and the chance to forget about their circumstances while working to provide a better life for themselves.
My projects are about giving my students the best experiences while they are in school and providing them with what they need to be the best students possible socially, emotionally, physically, and academically.
My Project
Our students and families are doing the best they can during these times. With everything being closed or limited hours, it does negatively impact our students. Many of them are working when they can to support a family which means some of the basic needs are left to chance. This project will supply our students with cleaning supplies to make sure their clothes are fresh and clean.
Additionally, good oral health is just as important as hygiene health.
We want to make sure they have toothpaste and toothbrushes to keep up with their oral health. Since the pandemic, many have missed appointments and resources for the small things will get left for larger more urgent needs. We see the items on this project just as urgent.
