My life, just like my students' lives, was drastically changed the day the mayor declared schools will be shutting down. School is the only stability many of my students have on a daily basis. Although I cannot provide that stability to my students physically, I can check in with them, teach them, and continue to give them an opportunity to learn via our Google Classroom. However, they still require the pencils, notebooks, and basic materials their families cannot afford to complete the assignments posted online. Please don't let these children fall through the cracks and let's give them a chance to grow.
