My Students

I am the teacher of very energetic and remarkable students in a city with the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in our country. Our district has over 48,000 students, encompasses almost 2,000 square miles, and has more than 130 schools and programs. There are over 100 languages spoken by families in our school district.

Each of my students come from his or her own unique situation and home life.

Every single one of my students has strengths to share, as well as room to grow academically, emotionally, and socially. My students are very creative and, as their teacher, I do my best to foster their learning and provide opportunities to grow as individuals. We work hard to build a strong and loving classroom community that works together to ensure learning, growth, opportunities, and successes for each other.

My Project

This past spring, my students spent the entire fourth quarter of school receiving distance education. Many of my students did not have basic supplies, such as paper and pencils, at home in order to fully participate and be successful. I would like to provide each of my students with a learning kit. The learning kit will be delivered to each student's home or picked up from me at the school. We will be starting out the school year with distance learning and I want to be proactive in providing my students with school supplies.

I want each of my students to have access to the supplies and tools needed in order to be engaged and successful with their learning.

With the help of DonorsChoose and our many generous donors, it will be possible to help each of my students be as successful as possible while learning at home.
