My students all come from disadvantaged backgrounds, but they ALL want to learn, and ALL deserve every chance to succeed. Our school has been very fortunate through out the years in obtaining sponsors and outside donations. Unfortunately, we are part of a large public school system where overall funding is very limited. I want to take every possible step to get the items my classroom needs. I want all monies the school has and that my principal has raised to be used for the overall school population. We have no Social Studies books and very old science books to use.
