My Students

We have student from all over the world attending our school. All I really want is for my kids to have what they need to take care of their basic needs so they can concentrate more on learning. All I would like our kids to have readily available to them are things to take care of their personal hygiene. We need things such as deodorant, toothbrushes, wipes to clean body, lotion and feminine products. Anything that will make them feel better about themselves. So they can be the best student and worry more about their academics.

My Project

The students basic needs need to be met and usually it’s hard to afford things for 60 kids. These kids are awesome and deserving of these items. This way they can concentrate on learning.

This way we will have a designated place for kids to go to without disruption.

Students will know the rules and expectations.

This will also help stop some of the bullying issues. There will not be name calling due to personal hygiene issues. This way students will not have to feel intimidated in class and more confident to participate and speak up. They will be able to take a more active role in their learning.

A clean child is a happy child. A happy child will be a successful student.
