We Will Make It Happen!

My students need a laptop and toner to print projects for math and reading. We will be using the laptop as a server in our classroom. After presentation of the lesson, students will do projects about the lesson.

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 Students

Our students now are thriving after the Great Flood. We believe that we can MAKE it! Though we have lost everything, we try to put things together to make each day a learning day for the students. Each day is becoming brighter as we move forward to our goal.

We are resilient to provide quality education to our children.

Our students had been scattered all around the city. Parents trust our school community. They came back to our school. They drove even miles away every day just to bring their children to our care. We will not disappoint our community, our parents, and our students. We will continue to do our best to provide their needs to be successful individual in our society.

My Project

Our students now are rebounding from the horrific tragedy that took everything. The laptop and toner will be used in publishing students' projects both in Reading and Math. (I provided already a printer for my class.) Published projects will be displayed in and out of the classroom. Feedback for each project will be provided by the teacher to show the areas of strengths and weaknesses.

Students work hard to achieve their goal!

Nothing will be impossible for students who are willing to learn. They will do their best to show their product of hard work. They will do their best to excel and master all skills they need to learn each day.
