My Students

Our population is very diverse. We have many nationalities, cultures, and abilities. Our children come to school eager to learn and with a thirst for knowledge in spite of their socioeconomic hardships. Our parents do all they can to provide our children with the supplies necessary to succeed. We have an in-depth special education program, a gifted and talented program, and a dual-language program. My computer lab is used by students in Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade.

An elementary school classroom is like no other place in the world.

It is a home for little ones for six hours a day. Teachers not only provide an education in math, reading, and other school subjects, they provide stability, love, acceptance, and support for amazing little people. Teachers educate the whole child. Personally, I strive to teach values, love, and acceptance in my room as well.

My Project

Dust is every where. You can't help it. Our homes and classrooms accumulate dust in the strangest of places... behind computers, under tables, on top of closets. Our computer lab is used by almost every student in the building and we try to keep it clean, but living in the city brings in dust and dirt always! We would love an air purifier to help us breath easier and filter the air we breath all day long. With so much construction and so many cars in the neighborhood, we are in need of a breath of fresh air! An air filter will help us breath easier as the weather changes and we open the windows more often!
