My Students

We have a great group of students at our school. We have several economically disadvantaged families, but our students work hard to learn and grow academically. We have been recognized as a reward school for the past two years due to our students' hard work and growth.

My Project

Please help me give our school and neat and organized space for our school's theater. We have been working hard over the last year and are putting the final touches on our renovated school theater. Our students love to use microphones, props, and equipment to put on shows and presentations and we could really use a place to store everything. These network shelves would be a great addition that give us a way to organize and repurpose a network cabinet that we already have into a store unit. We know that the students will love and have so much pride in their new theater and it will be a great place for them to showoff and perform for years to come.
