My Project

My school is located in a city with a high military family population. It is also a high-performing K-5 elementary school in a diverse suburban neighborhood. We are a very proud school and community and strive to work together so we can all succeed! We're fortunate to have strong relationships with our students and families.

I'm hoping to provide some quality headphones and seating for my students.

We do a lot of small-group at our kidney table and use our headphones a lot for the many technology needs we have. If you would be willing to help us out, with any amount, you would be making a world of difference for our day-to-day learning!!!
