Grades PreK-2

Our school motto is "Learning, Literacy, Living". It is our goal to teach our students the vision and skills needed to live productive, rewarding lives.

The majority of our students are considered "low income" or "at risk" so a lot of the time they do not have the opportunity to do certain activities. As educators, is it our mission to provide as much hands-on experience as possible.

We have science in our curriculum but we'd like to put more of an emphasis on it. Being able to purchase more science based materials, specifically for insect study, would be awesome!

These kids need all the help they can get. We see so much potential in them and by providing the funds we need to empower them, you, the donor, have a hand in their future!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
