This project is asking for DSLR cameras to help my students express the creative visions living inside their heads and help them come to life, as well as to help students organize their thoughts and ideas as they problem solve through our course and the world around them. Each day our students get out of bed and come to school to learn, be with friends, and build relationships and skills. Our Yearbook kids have been given the awesome responsibility of memorializing the last year of their high school experience along with learning essential skills for photography, photo editing, and publishing - helping set them up in many different creative endeavors. It would mean the world to them to have the chance to take professional photographs themselves and build their independence. Many of my students were directly impacted emotionally, physically, and financially by the pandemic. I want to ensure that regardless of their circumstances, they all are provided equal opportunities to learn and succeed within my classroom.
