We Need to See and Hear

Help me give my students reliable te​chnology in the classroom. With the addition of a new projector and speakers, my students will be able to see displays on the board, watch short videos and enhance their learning.

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 students are diverse in every single way. They travel from all over town, from all different walks of life to attend this amazing school. They are united as a family through music, dance, art, and theater. They are learning how to love not only themselves but everyone.

My students deserve the best because they give their best every day.

They are scholars who have high expectations and high demands for themselves. They never settle for less than their best!

My Project

Students are visual learners and the addition of the projector will help me ensure that I am reaching my students on this level. I strongly believe in the power of music for learning and the addition of speakers will help my students experience more in my classroom.

These items will help me make my classroom a safer and more engaging environment.

My students deserve technology and resources that are up to date, reliable and geared towards their personal learning goals.

Trying to encourage my students to come every day, that they are the best and deserve the best is very hard when the reality of the classroom space is out of date and no longer functioning.
