       A Lack of Resources for Urban Schools

 

Too often conversations about school funding are associated with demands to raise teachers’ salaries, but the situation is far more complex. Many teachers, especially in urban schools, are working with at-risk students with very few of the necessary resources to support them.

A classroom of 35-plus students without books is hardly a learning environment, especially when compared to suburban and private schools where the average class size is 20 students and resources are plentiful.

One would never think that schools would be at a lack for Books. However, in most urban schools books are a luxury. Many of the libraries are outdated by decades and the resources are few and far between.

Most teachers never have enough novels to allow kids to take them home and read them. Most teachers have students read everything in class. If kids could take their novels home, they could engage with the text in a more beneficial way.

No teacher should have to worry about not being able to provide the most basic resources for their students and no child should go to a school without proper books.

The Tybro Foundation, (a 501c3 corporation), is dedicated to helping in the fight to bring school resources up-to-date. More than 80% of the funds that we receive will go directly to purchasing books, kindle readers and computers to needy schools. We recently purchased Kindle Readers and $15,000 worth of books for Kirkman Park Elementary School’s library in High Point, North Carolina.

Our goal is to raise enough money so that we can continue to replenish the school’s library with books and update the library with 8 new computers. Most poor children do not to have adequate school supplies. Inadequate school supplies make learning difficult. In this way, the cycles of poverty and poor education are linked. 

Our goal for the Tybro Fundraiser is $30,000. As a 501c3 corporation, all donations that we receive are tax deductible. Please donate what you can today to help us end the cycle of Lack in our urban schools.

Thank you;
