My Students
I am the school Guidance Counselor and Basketball Coach at a Title I elementary school in Brooklyn, NY. Our neighborhood school has a multitude of diverse students from many different cultures and backgrounds.
I recognize that our low-income students have basic needs like pencils, pens, paper, and notebooks which will help them engage in lessons, as they gain knowledge they can bring back to their community to improve overall welfare.
It aids school attendance, helping children to overcome instability and identity crisis as they have the necessary tools to get a quality education.
I want to provide academic, social and emotional development, and college and career readiness skills for all the students at my school.
With funding so limited in our school, money for supplies and kits are non-existent. I'm reaching out for help so we can develop minds of our future leaders.
My Project
I want to give my low-income students the basic supplies they need to be successful in school and prepare them for academic rigor, civic engagement, social and emotional development, college and career readiness skills. My students are focusing their time at home doing remote learning.
Most of my students are looking forward to moving out of their parents' home, working, and being involved in their community when they finish school.
Others are looking to continue their education in a college or vocational/trade training program. Our motto is learners today to become leaders tomorrow.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
