My Students

We are a group of unique individuals who love to learn in ways that apply classroom concepts to real life situations. We also have an incredible community of parents who love to help and support their students at home, especially now that we are all "remote learning".

We are a community of diverse learners.

Many of our students score at or above standard, but we also we have 12-15% who are not performing at standard. Some students are second language learners and others have difficulty learning through traditional methods. These are students who have been identified with learning disabilities, which also includes students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, ADHD. Sometimes traditional methods don't address the way they learn.

In our school we love to learn and we acquire knowledge and skills best through learning together, sharing ideas and applying our skills to real world situations. I love that our school is made of unique individuals who bring varying ideas and enjoy working together. They solve problems by sorting out and building on each other’s ideas. Most importantly these scholars bring a love of learning to school everyday!

My Project

During remote learning students are struggling. They may have online tools to help them learn, but many need other materials to have an outlet for their feelings, or to escape the screen for a while.

Art and journaling are ways to help students write and create during this challenging time.

By giving students individual journals, and art supplies, students will be taught basics of resist painting, while also learning how to create art through their writing. This will lift the spirits of the students while giving them opportunities to learn and explore off the screen.
