Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

Our school strives to find the leader in all students, we are focusing on closing gaps and pushing our students to achieve academic, social and emotional goals. Our theme this year is "Learning Will Take You Places!" Every child has capabilities, talents, and strengths; sometimes, all it takes is exposure or motivation. Our students are back on campus after being closed due to COVID-19, we are working to prepare students for anywhere learning will take them in the future.

As the new librarian to nearly 300 students, I look forward to helping students fall in love with reading at an early age!

Of those nearly 300 students, we have a high population of English learners, three resource classes, and many receive speech services. Our school is working to improve student and family involvement by motivating our families with great learning experiences at school.

My Project

For students in primary grades, handwriting practice, and using pencil/paper has become more important after spending so much time learning on devices. After reading exciting texts in the library, students would be able to have their own primary journal to draw a picture and respond in writing.

Writing is an essential job skill.

Writing is the primary basis upon which one's work, learning, and intellect will be judged—in college, in the workplace, and in the community. Writing equips us with communication and thinking skills. Students will be able to use their journals to respond to all types of literature in writing. Writing fosters our ability to explain and refine our ideas to others and ourselves.
