My Students
I have the privilege of supporting fifteen, outstanding ladies who are eager to be the best version of themselves they can be. As an advisor, it is my responsibility to support these young ladies throughout their entire high school career. Hopefully, this relationship that I now get to build with them will extend beyond this immediate experience.
At my high school, all tenth graders are tasked with literacy improvement and my girls are committed to doing more than the basic.
My group of girls decided to take the task and couple it with a topic that affects those around them, modern day slavery. Their goal is to learn about various topics of modern slavery and complete community services projects directly supporting those who are victims of modern day slavery. The goal is to complete a capstone project towards the end of the school year to promote awareness to the entire student body.
My Project
My students seek to learn about modern day slavery, in particular, sex-trafficking, and will be reading different literature throughout the year around it. My advisory agreed that sex-trafficking and other forms of modern slavery are important for young women to be educated about, so that they know how to best combat it. Currently, they are discussing what organizations they can best collaborate with. My girls will also complete a capstone project at the end of the year where they seek to educate others on this tragedy and how to best respond to it. The materials that are being requested will aid more than the fifteen girls as they are eager to share with others what they will learn and experience throughout the year and beyond.
