My Project

Our students are amazing! They come to school excited to learn and grow. As teachers, our job is not just teaching math, reading and writing but also teaching delicate topics. Many of our students are experiencing changes in their bodies. They are embarrassed and hesitant to discuss what is going on. As educators, it is our duty to explain what is going on. We would like to set up a free pantry of supplies where kids can go to get personal hygiene products in a discreet way. Students will be able to take care of their personal needs and learn independence.
