My Students

Our students, have been doing their best to keep up with distance learning. As we have all recently experienced, it has also been a trying experience to balance all of the demands coming our way at once. We want to send our students a quarantine summer care package.

My Project

Help give our students some basic items to make their distance learning a little more tolerable. These snacks, pens and cleaning wipes will help students set up a productive and focused study area in their homes.

We hope that these materials will give students the jumpstart and reminder that they need to stay focused and continue learning.

It has been difficult for all students to remain engaged during this time, but being able to send our students small reminders will help keep them motivated and hopefully sends our message that we are thinking about them.
