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 Students

My awesome scholar attends Ron Brown College Preparatory High School it is an all-boys school located in Washington, DC. Although they face widespread poverty and a high crime rate in a low-income and under-resourced, our school is of great tradition and great pride. It is essential that students are afforded an equal education, while it's true that the school and students do struggle with the difficulties, there are many positive stories of success. Students have expressed interest in Science activities that incorporate software and technology as well as an opportunity to socialize and compete with one another. A Science and Technology Club would afford students an opportunity to engage academically, while socializing with their peers and relieving some stress from the effects of Covid-19 and remote learning. Your donations will help fund this project and help these Young Kings to develop new friendships among their peers, while engaging in academic projects geared toward Science & Technology. For example, Students will use the virtual game system to study Human anatomy & Chemistry, which is essential part of medicine. This app has excellent graphics, informative content and innovative features is learning rich and engaging experience.
