Primarily, Christians believe Jesus existed as a matter of faith. You cannot (and are not intended to) prove faith!
However, here are some websites that may give you some ideas:

i need to write an essay about if jesus existed.it is similar to the one that someone asked for help about a few weeks ago.
the question im stuck on is i need to ask questions about that jesus did exist and answer them. the question i have come up with is :- Why do we celebrate christmas? answer - To celebrate Jesus` birth .Jesus must have existed because christmas is named after Jesus Christ and we give presents to each other because they symbolise the gifts the three wise men gave Jesus. I can`t think of any more.

Jesus does exist you can read it in the Bible and find Chrisitan sites.
I feel as though this assignment might be something you should complete on your own. It is very upsetting to some people to ask the question of if Jesus existed or not. For me, I say yes he existed. But I grew up in a home where that is something we believe in. For others, it might be different. We should not ask opinions that involve faith.
If your school is asking you to write this thats crazy! I am a Lutheran (Christian) myself, but I still had some friends who were atheist or worshiped the devil (hence: had). They would be furious if someone told them to write this, and they probably would not know what to say because they never learned about Him.
@Writeacher, you are very wrong. You can indeed prove faith by:
1.) Proclaiming the Gospel
2.) Getting Baptized
3.) Saying prayers
4.) Being kind
5.) Trying your best to follow His law (which is the 10 Commandments, but because of our sin it is impossible to keep them all)
