My students are 4 years old and are experiencing school for the first time. They are creative and enthusiastic about learning. They love to use their imagination, explore, and create artwork. Our school is small and our budget is limited. The majority of my students come from low-income families. Most of my students' parents are unable to volunteer their time and money because of their need to work.
