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

Hello! I am an instructional coach who has students and teachers in and out of my office all day every day. I am requesting these materials in hopes of sprucing up this space a little bit so students AND teachers have a calm and inviting place to work and grow.

We are a feeder school for 7 homeless shelters in our neighborhood so our students are predominantly transient.

Providing our scholars with a safe and inviting space for them to learn is essential. Additionally, allowing teachers to have a clean, calm, and inviting space for them to complete their ever growing to do list is also essential.
