I teach 6th grade students with a variety of backgrounds, with a wide range of knowledge and abilities. These students each have big dreams, specific interests, a variety of strengths, and their own personal challenges. Our school is a K-8, elementary charter school, in a large, urban school district. We have high academic expectations for our students, and our mission is to prepare them for their futures. In our classroom, we work every minute, every day, to learn, laugh, and challenge ourselves.
