My fabulous first graders are a bright bunch of hard-working children who are eager to succeed! My classroom is comprised of 22 diverse students who are mostly from low-income families. We love our inner-city school and can always use a little extra help from our friends to support our curriculum. I love teaching and it is truly a joy to come to work every day! I am constantly exploring and studying the most efficient, creative ways to reach all my students...with your financial support , I am able to provide my students with everything and anything they need to succeed !!!
