My Project

My middle school students know that I will help them however I can. I don't just teach them ELA, but I try to take care of them as a whole person. We are at a small, Title I school in North Alabama, and our poverty rate is high; they don't always have what they need. I try to keep some necessary supplies for my students on a dedicated shelf in my room. Hair ties, deodorant, lotion, chapstick, snacks, and feminine supplies are my most requested items. Please help me stock my supplies so I can help my students focus on what's most important: learning!
