My Students
Have you ever met sixth graders? On the verge of becoming their own people, they are full of curiosity, energy, and enthusiasm.
As one of the top-performing charter schools in the state, our school is working daily to help our students achieve their full potential.
The students in my year-round urban charter school are 95% low income. They attend school from 8 am to 5 pm daily. The staff at our charter school works diligently within our rigorous curriculum to help education come alive!
My students struggle with issues that often fall outside the scope of understanding. From poverty to food insecurity, homelessness to incarcerated parents, they face head-on many challenges that would make adults crumble. Even with these challenges, they come to school each day trying to put their best foot forward and grow as students, in academics, and as leaders.
My Project
In the Covid influenced classroom, we try to minimize material sharing and cross class usage. This helps to ensure that students are safe and protected from the spread of the virus. These markers, colored pencils, and pencil pouches will allow my students to have access to their own materials in the classroom and allow for safer access to these materials. With these materials, students will be able to express themselves creatively- they will be able to add color to academic projects, dream in full color, and participate fully in classroom activities.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
