A local organization is helping Houston area teachers with the financial burden of returning to the classroom.
“I’m married with three kids and those funds for those extra things in my classroom can be a bit tight seeing that I have to cover the expenses of my own children,” said Austin Diggs.
Diggs, a business teacher and coach at Cypress Lakes High School, knows the start of the school year can be tough for teachers.“We have identified ten teachers across seven districts around the Houston area where we are giving them $300 Amazon gift cards for them to use to spend on their supplies for their classroom,” said Brian Edwards with Building Knowledge Everywhere.
