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

Please help my students get paint to finish their amazing ceramic projects! My students use paint to bring their ceramic projects to life. Students express their love of bringing their art work to life by adding color. My students like having cool colors to choose from.

It is an amazing thing to see how a positive ceramic art experience can change a young person's outlook on life!

I have seen how a positive ceramic art experience can change the way my students view themselves and what is possible for their lives! Thank you in advance for being a change maker in my student's lives!

Mr. Jefferson
Grades 9-12
