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
My students are the epitome of triumph and resilience. With poverty and gun violence plaguing our community, students still enter the building every day eager to learn and make a positive impact on our school. Students ask many questions about math and science and draw real world connections to their life experiences.
I want to continue to foster my students' inquisitiveness and excitement by allowing them to work collaboratively to solve performance tasks.
Performance tasks increase the rigor of our classroom by allowing students to think critically and creatively, work collaboratively, and communicate effectively.
My Project
Help me supply students with warm jackets for the upcoming winter season. As students have returned back in person, we do not have enough funds to supply all of our students with extra supplies such as jackets. We would love to support as many students as possible by providing them with extra supplies and materials.
This project is going to provide students with the best opportunity to be successful by giving them warm clothes, and supplies for the upcoming season.
The addition of these jackets will aid in providing students and their families with additional support during the winter. Many of our families have faced financial hardships due to the pandemic. It is important for us that all students have access to to these items and supplies. This project will ensure that students within our community have access to warm clothes and jackets.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
