My Students

My school has a wonderful mixture of students living in different socio-economic neighborhoods. We have students living in anything from section 8 housing right next door all the way to the "Hills" which is a very wealthy community. Our kids are so open with one another and I always hear about students volunteering to help other students. Just last week I overheard a student in my class asking another student if he sits alone at lunch, and when he said yes, she immediately invited him to come sit with her and her friends next time he ate. I have never witnessed such kindness from highschool students before. Our best buddies program is growing rapidly and while we do have issues with gangs, fights etc. even our aggressors understand that our school is a safe, inclusive place. Our school has started a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) for all students so when the rules are broken we have the ability to talk with the student and have them attend regular counseling and groups so that they can work through some of those internal issues instead of letting their emotions get the best of them. I love my school and my students!

My Project

Students will be required to design a Tshirt with their favorite Math unit from this year and wear them to their final exam!

Notebooks & classroom supplies will help me keep them involved and taking efficient notes.

My students are constantly starving and in need of PPE, the school unfortunately does not provide surgical masks or any type of snacks for students free of charge. I used to work at a school that offered free breakfast & lunch to all so I am very new to a school not providing free food. I would love to at least supply my kids with healthy snacks and classroom supplies so that they can learn efficiently.
