Why Peshine Avenue Elementary School?
New Jersey Axtrians organized a community service effort focused on elementary education, and Peshine had a dire need. To assist, Axtrians donated new iPads and school supplies to improve education through technology and essential materials. While the cameras were rolling, the teachers bared their hearts and souls, sharing the struggles they endure to make a difference for their students.
The school's reality is universal. Across all demographics, 94% of public school teachers report spending their own money on school supplies. However, through sheer determination and love for education, teachers across the globe pour their hearts into ensuring students the best education they can provide.
