My Students

My students are in temporary housing. I am the community coordinator and I support students and their families with housing, benefits, and all other needs.

While many of my students are experiencing displacement, homelessness, doubled up, ​etc.

many of them are still doing well in class and are resilient enough not to let those circumstances stop them from being all they can be.

My students are special needs and are diagnosed with different mental, educational, or social disabilities. They still work just as hard as the students in general education.

My Project

Hello!

I am requesting ink and paper to be able to continue to print out and send packages, letters and updates home to my students.

With students doing remote learning, they are in need of packets that help guide them through the work and some students work better on paper then they do on the computer. These headphones will assist me in speaking to my students and moving around at the same time.

I also requested one instant camera to gift to a student for the holiday. That student would have to be showing resilience to these tough times and pushing to excel!

Remote learning is tough, but together we are getting through!
