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

We need this laminator to keep our resources such as charts, signs, classroom visuals, index cards, etc. in good enough condition for stakeholders to utilize throughout the years. Your donation will help teachers who need support to help provide long-term solutions for their classrooms, it will give students the opportunity to have supplies that are durable while in the classroom.

A laminating machine can turn a piece of paper from a single-use resource into a resource the children and teachers can use throughout the years.

Our students and staff are struggling with keeping supplies that are being needed in the school and classroom. Schools must typically spend federal funds on specific projects and groups of students. Unfortunately, our school can’t afford to provide the resource of a laminating machine. This makes it difficult for everyone to hold on to resources for a decent amount of time. Teachers who need support for their classrooms to create a productive learning environment. Students can directly write on laminated material, which the teacher can use multiple time with all students when needed.

Your donation will help the life of teachers easier; help provide better resources for all our students and support with student activities. Success is the common goal for the Miami Edison SHS “Red Raider” family as we are working towards “Raising Our Standards”.
