    Please help out some "Duke" middle-schoolers!

    Would anyone be willing to help some "Duke" middle-schoolers???

    I teach 7th-grade math at a charter school in DC. Our goal is to prepare our students -- who are almost all from low-income families -- for college success. As part of that goal, the homerooms are named after the staff's alma maters, and I am SO excited that this year, my homeroom will be Duke University.

    I am looking forward to sharing the awesomeness of Duke with my students, starting with decorating my classroom with tons of Duke paraphernalia. Do any of you have old posters, pennants, pictures, t-shirts, etc. that you would be willing to donate to help decorate the room? If so, please get in touch with me by email.

    Thanks so much!
