The students in our classroom engage in new learning opportunities with enthusiasm and gusto. Opportunities that allow them to see the world beyond the city are few and far between.
More than 80% of our student population has difficulty securing basic living needs including food and housing.
For many students, school is the highlight of their day, knowing that is where breakfast and lunch are provided. The majority are English Language Learners, whose parents are first-generation immigrants.
Our classroom is an exciting learning environment where we come together from diverse backgrounds to collaborate with each other as we engage in hands-on active inquiry and digital learning experiences.
Our classroom has become an integral part of their success in helping them feel secure, included, and encouraged. The sense of community that we have built allows each child the opportunity to explore their beliefs and ideas in a safe environment.
Thank you for taking the time to consider our classroom project!
My Project
Growing up is difficult enough. The change to womanhood can be even more difficult. If your family struggles financially, it can put additional strain on an already sensitive subject.
This project aims to provide feminine sanitary supplies and zip pouches to girls in a discreet way without drawing attention to them.
This is something that students should not have to worry about when they come to school. These materials would help provide basic necessities that are really an added, expensive, monthly expense to a family that already has difficulties. Personally, I felt that the timing of this project with International Women's Day was wonderful.
