Mr. Jacobowitz’s Classroom Edit display name

  • Moravia Park Elementary School
  • Baltimore, MD

Your custom url is https://www.donorschoose.org/mr-jacobowitz

My students reside in and around Baltimore. While most are African-American, my school is also the home school of Baltimore's refugee population. My students hail from Nepal, Bhutan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic and Iraq, just to name a few of their home countries! Most came to the US fleeing terrible conditions at home. Many of the Iraqi students' parents, for example, were translators for the American army during the current war; they feared for their lives after assisting the invading forces. As a group they are energetic and very smart! They scored very well on their state tests last year, and we plan to climb even higher this year for these scores will be the biggest determining factor for what high school they attend and what path their lives take.
