Please help us make learning fun! Our adorable fifth graders come from working class families who struggle to make ends meet. Our kids enjoy school and are curious about the world. They especially feel strongly about protecting the environment and volunteer their time running the recycling program for our school and picking up litter in our neighborhood.
