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

With education becoming more and more technology forward, it is evident that students must learn to be adept at utilizing tech from an early age. My students are lucky enough to have a classroom set of chromebooks for use for this very reason, however it is very difficult for them to focus and progress in this area without having headphones.

Having a class set of headphones would greatly improve the quality of learning my students would be receiving in class.

Many of my students come from low-income families and cannot afford the extra cost of this to provide for the classroom.

We'd highly appreciate this crucial addition to our classroom. Thank you so much.
