Lady Gaga to fund classroom projects in communities impacted by mass shootings
Lady Gaga financiará projetos de sala de aula em comunidades afetadas por tiroteios em massa
In El Paso, Texas, there are books for third-grade students, many of whom have none at home. Disabled students in Dayton, Ohio, will get bouncy chairs to help calm them for learning. Science kits will go to fifth graders in Gilroy, California.
Em El Paso, Texas, há livros para alunos da terceira série, muitos dos quais não têm nenhum em casa. Alunos com deficiência em Dayton, Ohio, ganharão cadeiras de balanço para ajudar a acalmá-los para o aprendizado. Kits de ciências irão para alunos da quinta série em Gilroy, Califórnia.
Those are just three of a series of local classroom initiatives that Grammy-winning singer Lady Gaga has pledged to fund as students in those shaken communities, the latest U.S. cities to endure mass shootings, go back to school this week.
Essas são apenas três de uma série de iniciativas locais em salas de aula que a cantora vencedora do Grammy Lady Gaga prometeu financiar enquanto os alunos dessas comunidades abaladas, as últimas cidades dos EUA a sofrer tiroteios em massa, voltam às aulas esta semana.
Her aim is to bring a measure of hope to places devastated by an extraordinary week of mass shootings in a country numbed by a steady beat of news about gun violence.
Seu objetivo é levar um pouco de esperança a lugares devastados por uma semana extraordinária de tiroteios em massa em um país entorpecido por um ritmo constante de notícias sobre violência armada.
"I want to channel my confusion, frustration, and fury into hope," Gaga said on Facebook, where she announced the donation from her Born This Way Foundation in partnership with nonprofit DonorsChoose.
"Quero canalizar minha confusão, frustração e fúria em esperança", disse Gaga no Facebook, onde anunciou a doação de sua Fundação Born This Way em parceria com a organização sem fins lucrativos DonorsChoose.

Auckland Grammar student James Hunt takes school to court after stand-down for long hair
An Auckland Grammar student is taking his school to court after he was punished for not cutting his hair.
James Hunt, who is in Year 9, was stood down for a day last week after refusing to cut his hair. The school's rules state that students' hair must not touch the collar.
James last cut his hair in January to allow him to begin school. The 13-year-old wore his hair long in memory of his grandfather Paul Hunt, who died a day before he was born and was once expelled from school for his long hair.
James has employed lawyer Jol Bates to challenge Auckland Grammar's rule. Bates successfully defended St John's College student Lucan Battison in 2014 after the then-16 year-old was suspended for long hair.
