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

We are requesting school supplies for our community. As a teacher at a Title I school, getting school supplies can be difficult for our families and becomes a burden on our community and often becomes my burden to carry as a teacher.

My students will use these supplies to be creative and learn without worrying about not having supplies for our classroom.

Annually as a teacher, I spend over one thousand dollars to ensure my students have the supplies they need to create amazing projects and fulfill their academic needs. This would significantly help with the burden it has on me as a teacher.

My students will use these supplies to keep our space neat and organized, to create beautiful projects, to have supplies for daily work completion, and the giant connect four will be used during recess for something more to do than just sit around.

Ms. Johnson
Grades 6-8
