My Students

The sooner the students can develop research techniques the better academics they will become.

My students are college bound and eager to learn.

We work at an advanced pace that prepares them for a successful academic experience. We are a middle school within a K-8 community school. The school is only in it's third year so one of the challenges my students face is a lack of resources.

My Project

My students need access to legitimate sources that can help improve research and understanding. What we need is an encyclopedia of America's Wars to use in the classroom. One of the unfortunate truths of social studies is there are some major wars throughout America's history. I want my students to be able to understand society as best as they can. One of the ways I can help them is to provide them an abundance of legitimate resources that can be used to back up my teaching.

The donation will help to improve an emerging learning environment.

My students will be impacted for years to come by being provided tools to encourage their inquiries. My students will be able to do independent research to prepare for future academic endeavors.
