Celebrating Black History Month

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

I have a diverse group of students. My students are some of the most loving, persistent, and hardworking students I know. They are the reason I can't wait to come to school every day!

We are a Title I school in rural Florida.

State funding is at an all-time low, making it difficult to get the resources we need for our classrooms. Despite all of this, we do have exciting things happening in our classrooms every day.

My students work very hard to achieve their goals. In our classroom, we work together and help each other be the best that we can be!

My Project

My students need tie dye supplies and shirts for a special beginning of the year celebration. I would love to start this year off with a fun activity! What better way than to have a tie-dye celebration with my students.

For this project we will need youth t-shirts in multiple sizes, vinyl, and Tulip tie-dye kits.

We will have a day where we will tie-dye shirts and come up with a fun slogan to put on them. The kids will have a blast! The students will use the t-shirts for many activities throughout the year such as class field trips, field day, and parties. Thank you so much for your consideration to donate to this project!
