My Project

Please help me give my students materials that will build up their self confidence, increase their knowledge about black history, and inspire them to accomplish their dreams! I am requesting an affirmation library where students can read stories they can relate to!

I teach an amazing group of boys who are strong, creative, resilient, and imaginative!

They love reading, learning, and are very artistic. The books and art supplies I am requesting will provide endless learning opportunities! Thank you for your support of this project! We cannot wait to read the stories ALL year long!
