My Project

Our students have limited access to cameras and equipment for creating the yearbook. While we were able to raise funds last year and earlier this year, with a lot of help from Donors choose, and members of the school community, we are still short on equipment and cannot successfully document the year, especially with the increased enrollment in our yearbook class. Currently, we have four cameras to share between 24 students.

Due to wear and tear, and increased class size, we simply cannot complete a yearbook without the help of our LaGuardia Community, as we are limited in supplies and resources.

With additional camera equipment, students will have more opportunities to develop their photography skills, work collaboratively, and photograph important moments throughout the year.
