My Students

I have a diverse group of students. My students are some of the most loving, persistent, and hardworking students I know. They are the reason I can't wait to come to school every day!

We are a Title I school in rural Florida.

State funding is at an all-time low, making it difficult to get the resources we need for our classrooms. Despite all of this, we do have exciting things happening in our classrooms every day.

My students work very hard to achieve their goals. In our classroom, we work together and help each other be the best that we can be!

My Project

I would love to have a warm and inviting reading corner where students can get "Anchored" in a good book. I want to provide my student with new and interesting books as well as having a bookshelf that makes it easy for students to find the book of their choice.

It is imperative that students are reading and enjoying reading!

By providing them with a variety of book genres and titles, students are sure to find a book or series they like.

Giving the students a comfortable place to read will allow them to get lost in their book and be fully engaged in the stories. Providing a comfortable rug and pillows, will allow my students to do just that. Thank you so much for considering a donation. My students and I thank you!
