My Students

My students are simply amazing. They are curious, creative, and eager for knowledge. They inspire me to be better every day. They are on a guided path to being lifelong learners. I'm honored to be a part of their journey.

Looking out into the classroom and seeing students from other parts of the world and some born right in our neighborhood makes for a rich cultural experience.

The in-depth discussions are continuously fascinating for all of us. Our school is diverse; it makes teaching and being a part of the community a welcomed challenge every day. Thank you in advance for helping to better our classroom and advance our learning!

My Project

Our class writes and writes! These blossoming young authors need a fresh refill of high quality pencils and long-lasting erasers. Access to good pencils is a high motivator with students. We need a refill of black and colored ink around the classroom to print materials for the class. Colored ink is such an exciting treat in a classroom! We need a restocking of markers and colored pencils available to the students.

I keep a large amount of markers, colored pencils, and crayons in the classroom that I purchased with my own money available to all students; we are running low on black markers and all colored pencils.

The students come with supplies, but they are kids. They lose them, use them up, or who knows what happens to them! That's the charm of being a kid. I love having easy access for any and all students to keep their supply box full and ready for our classroom activities. Please help to refill our classroom color supplies! Thank you in advance for your help and consideration.
