My Project

I have the best students ever!! Despite their adversities , they do not allow their social economic circumstances to deter them from showing up at school, working and studying hard.

Some of the students have a hard time hearing me in the back of the classroom, as we transition in the hallways and outside; the voice amplifier and Bluetooth speaker will resolve this issue.

Other pertinent supplies requested such as glue, clipboards, dry erase markers and erasers are basic necessities we have ran out of and will help prepare us as we move towards summer school.
