My Project

My students are hardworking, resilient sixth graders. Our school is in District 17, and data shows that our school district has one of the highest levels of homelessness, low income, single parent households. Yet, in spite of the many personal challenges that my students face on a daily basis, they show up and show out everyday in math class.

Your donations would help to celebrate students at the end of the school year.

Snacks will be shared and they will be celebrated for their hard work in spite of their difficulties.

Ms. Soya Middle School 61 Dr Gladstone H Atwell Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
