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 Students

My students are bright and curious, ready to learn new and interesting things. We are a Title I school and all the students in my school receive free breakfast and lunch. As a teacher at my school, my sole purpose is to make sure my students' school time is engaging, enlightening, and memorable. Of course, my school budget for materials doesn't always allow for the opportunity to make learning new and interesting. Regardless of the many challenges they face, I am striving to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences. All of my students are eager and ready to learn, but we need resources to help close the learning gap. To assist with this, we need additional resources!

"Every student can learn, just not on the same day or way."

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. If you decide to donate to this project, you are supporting a group full of hardworking students who are all full of life and have an immense desire to be successful in life.

My Project

My students love to draw and paint! Having the supplies in this project means they will be able to create more masterpieces. The display pockets will be used to display student art and classwork. The bags will be used to store art materials and supplies.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, but you will also ultimately help to increase their academic achievement through art!

My students will be able to use arts to show their understanding of the material they have read. Having these supplies also means that my struggling writers will be able to utilize art to show they understood the lesson for the day.
