My Students

The majority of our students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds and 85% qualify for free or reduced-price school lunch. Our kindergarten students represent a plethora of cultures and linguistic backgrounds, and all of them have something special to share with us!

Our diverse school has energetic and eager students who are ready to learn!

Our students are Arabic, Latino, Black, Caucasian, Egyptian, Russian, Burmese, Chinese, Mongolian, Filipino, Vietnamese, Chinese/Vietnamese, Italian/Chinese, and Polish/Chinese. We are learning to be safe, responsible, and respectful in our classrooms and school!

My Project

My students love to read and learn about new things. These new non-fiction books will teach them about science topics such as : plants, pumpkins, and apples.

Our school is focusing learning more about our school mascot, the dragon; these fiction and non-fiction books will help motivate them to learn facts and interesting things about dragons!

We hope to create some stories and artwork depicting what we learned about dragons from these books.

The colored labels will help us label all our leveled readers and different topics of books. This will help my students read more books and keep them organized!
