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 school serves students in grades Pre-K-5th and provides strong academics, creative teachers, and a safe learning environment. Our school is a low-income, Title I school, with a diverse population. We support social skills and a growth mindset, combines with an emphasis on academics, to ensure that our students grow to become well-rounded, successful, and happy students. My little students are young Pre-K 4’s & VPK. We are blended gen-ed and ESE special needs.
My special students require teachers to reach each student emotionally, thereby gaining their trust to encourage them academically.
One needs to create a safe and loving classroom that allows students to be comfortable to challenge themselves to meet the high learning expectations.
I want to provide them with the tools to be able to develop their potential as independent and critical learners.
I want my students to become independent and to try to do things on their own. My students are wonderful little people who are ready to conquer anything!
My Project
The use of face masks, hand sanitizer, and hand soap is very important as more students come back to the classroom. Being in a diverse, lower-income neighborhood, many families struggle with school supplies. As face masks and hand sanitizers have become the "new" school supplies, there is the concern of parents being able to supply these for their children. We have already given out hundreds of face masks to students, to where we are in need of more to be able to keep everyone safe for the rest of the school year.
Please help make sure all our scholars stay safe and healthy, ensuring equity and equality of health to our scholars: face masks, hand sanitizer and hand soap should not be luxuries to students, but available to all no matter what their economic status.
I want to make sure all our scholars have what they need to stay protected from coronavirus by wearing masks and using hand sanitizer and hand soap when need. It will be very important that they have their own supplies so that the virus is not spread.
