My Students

My students are some of the strongest, most tenacious, brightest young people you would ever want to meet. Despite the many challenges they face on a daily basis (poverty, food insecurity, gang violence in their neighborhoods, high crime rates, etc.) they continue to show up every day with great attitudes, ready to learn.

Their grit and determination is an inspiration to me every day and I feel as their teacher, I have an obligation to bring them the best educational experience possible.

I hope you will help me in my mission to give that to them. They deserve nothing less.

My Project

I have asked for a very reasonably priced color printer for my classroom as well as ink cartridges to get us started.

These items will allow me to print colorful materials for my students to use.

Colored images bring historical photographs to life! Charts, graphs and maps printed in color allow students to better understand and appreciate the material given to them. Also, students will be able to use this printer for their classroom projects, bringing their own work to life with colored prints! History was meant to be seen in color, your donation will make that a reality for these very deserving students!
