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

As a small school with limited resources, our dedicated teachers at the SHSD continually go above and beyond to provide quality education to our students. However, due to budget constraints, teachers often bear the financial burden of purchasing their teaching supplies. As a result, the school administration carefully considers each expense and may not approve items deemed as extras.

In the past five years, our school has faced significant changes, especially with the impact of Covid-19.

These changes have not only affected the learning environment but also the needs of our students and teachers. In today's digital age, having access to Chromebooks and computers has become essential in empowering our students with 21st-century skills.

As a middle school teacher within our district, I understand the challenges of working with limited resources. Without a stipend for supplies, acquiring everything we need often relies on external sources of support. Unfortunately, this means that sometimes we lack the necessary resources to provide an optimal learning experience for our students.

I am reaching out to kindly request your assistance with the items I have carefully selected. Currently, I am facing a challenge as I do not possess a file cabinet to adequately store my students' records and other essential paperwork. To alleviate this issue, I am seeking your support in acquiring a suitable file cabinet.

I want to assure you that I have intentionally chosen only the items that are truly essential to the success and well-being of my students and myself. Your kind assistance and support in providing these items would be immensely appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and generosity. Your support will make a significant impact on our learning community.

Warm regards,

Shannon Rogers
