My Students

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own, and you know what you know. And you are the guy who'll decide where to go. -Dr. Seuss

My kindergarten students are truly one of a kind!!!

I have 23 amazing students who are so eager to learn!!! We started this year on August 3, 2011 in our school in Kentucky. However, due to a devastating tornado on March 2, 2012, we are now located in a warehouse building where we are blessed to have turned into a temporary school with the help of God's Pit Crew from Virginia and many other volunteers. Thank you for your support!!

My Project

Having these wonderful resources will help decorate our classroom. The books will help us have the opportunity to open our little minds up and open up our imagination! The stapler will help us keep up with our papers, the greenhouses will help us learn about the life cycle of plants! The supplies will reinforce our learning as well as make it a comfortable learning environment. My students need items to decorate our classroom to make it a fun learning environment, books to open our imagination, and supplies to reinforce learning!

Helping support our project supports the students that have had a life changing experience due to the recent tornado.

Having these little "extras" help comfort them and make school a fun and exciting place to learn!!
