This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
The students at my middle school are diverse in race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic levels. We have significant free lunch participants, and even though our school has limited technology, my students show limitless perseverance, potential, and productivity. Two years ago my students and I started an after-school eSports Club out of discarded technology, and generous community donations. This club's popularity has skyrocketed! With our growth, we are receiving a larger facility, and we would like to request additional stands, Wired Controllers, Compact Docking Stations, and Light Projectors to provide our students with the best gaming experience in middle school.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
