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

Our students are such a joy to be around they give us so much pleasure and happiness the moment they walk into our classroom. They are eager to learn, and they have worked extremely hard this school year. In honor of all their academic success, we would love to recognize them with a beautiful moving up ceremony.

Recognizing student success is essential to the development of self-esteem, and academic learning.

Giving students positive experiences in school helps establish a positive attitude towards school and will motivate them to be life long learners. The students need to feel special on their graduation day. Giving them the opportunity to have a beautiful, colorful, and welcoming decorations, along with a book as a gift, will be a blessing.
