My students are enthusiastic learners and always strive to do their best. Unfortunately, many of them come from disadvantaged homes. Many have single parents or foster parents that struggle to provide basic needs for their children and cannot afford technology. Our classroom is often the most stable, positive force in their lives. My class is an inclusion classroom, so several of my students have special needs. This means I make even more of an effort to provide learning in a variety of ways and strategies. My students are all helpful and accepting of each other's differences. Because they are all too familiar with life's difficulties, they are sensitive and compassionate with one another, helping to create an environment that is warm, loving, and safe. Our school strives to meet the needs of these children. My students are strong and resilient! However, every bit of support helps to provide for their education.
