My Students

At our middle school, there are 850 students. These students come from a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds, and some are not always excited to learn because learning comes harder to them. We strive hard to help all students be their best.

Our students are creative, fun, and ready to learn!

My goal is to make sure each student has the supplies they need and the things to create a fun learning environment while keeping them safe.

My Project

When a student falls during PE, twists an ankle, or hits his head, a wheelchair is necessary for getting these students to the nurse's office for an evaluation.

I would appreciate your generosity in funding a wheelchair on campus that can be used to transport my students from their classroom or the PE areas to the nurse's office where the student can be promptly assessed.

Transporting a student to the nurse's office in the safest manner possible is the first step in supporting the student's health. I am also requesting bandages, wraps, and ice packs for these students.
