My Project

My school is a great school with just as great children. However, we are in an area where we don't get as much parental support as we would like, and that leaves the faculty and staff to take up the slack. This is a task that some of us take willingly. Some of the tasks require an amount that is out of our teachers' budgets. Currently, we are preparing for our 8th-grade prom. The items that I have listed will help us for this event and many more thereafter. The chafing dishes will be used to serve the meal. The greenery will be used to create the backdrops and the wipes will be used for students who may need to freshen up.

Ms. GABRIEL Dr. Frederick Douglass Senior Middle School Grades 6-8
