My Project

Students at my Title I school have the ability to be success as our school district have given all students computer. However, many students lose their computer charger and struggle to get my assignments completed. Chargers are essential for learning as they cannot get their work done. My classes require students to record their work in a composition notebook. However, at the start of every semester, students have lose their notebook or run out of pages and need a new composition notebook. It is essential for their success to have somewhere to record what they are learning. Finally, its that time of the year and not students are getting sick and I have run out of tissues. I need more tissues so they can stay health and not spread their germs. It is essential that students have tissues to stay in class.
