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

I am in need of assistance to help my scholars to perform and be able to look and feel their best while at school! I work at a title 1 school that is in a rough neighborhood so a lot of students do not come to school with proper hygiene, no supplies, not able to visit the library for home enjoyment.

The materials all have a meaning; The headphones will be used for iPad center time and for testing , The iPad mini will be used to store class pictures, notes, take children, pedant communication.

Other materials such as the hygiene materials will be available for students to properly gown themselves and be ready for

the day if they need it.
