Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

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

Our students have a very keen eye for ways to share their voices visually. Our young men will have the opportunity to explore their curiosity about the world around them through visual representation. The equipment will be a part of a visual arts class/club here at our school. Students will explore not only still photos but also videography. The class will explore content creation which will also be displayed throughout the school. One of the final presentations of their work will be the network of the Eagle Project.

The final presentation will be a visual look into the social and academic lives of our scholars and allow others to see the benefits of attending an all-male school.
