In the heart of central Florida lies a Title I elementary school surrounded by a quickly changing landscape. Where once orange groves and pastureland spread as far as the eye could see now one will spot new subdivisions and apartments being constructed. New families are flooding our into our local schools. The children are facing many changes and the big emotions that go with that. It is my vision to bridge this gap by providing resources to grow their Social Emotional Learning. Our K-5 charter school focuses on enriching Academic through the Arts. The students are a mix in abilities, motivation, as well as parental support. Some lack in internal motivation as well as support and love in the home. Positive praise, lots of love, and a healthy sense of competition create a passion for learning with ALL of these kids!
