My Students

I teach the greatest group of students with special needs! I teach in a 100% free lunch school that has students from diverse backgrounds. My students bring character and personality to our groups each day.

My students show up every day, excited to learn new things!

They are excited to participate in their classrooms and show-off what they know to the general education teacher and their peers. They get pulled for small groups each day to support them in their areas of need, but otherwise, they’re working alongside their non-disabled peers, on the grade level curriculum.

My Project

A new year should mean new and exciting things in a students' classroom! Our students love walking into a well-decorated, bright, and colorful room when they get to school. Decorations give our room a calm and happy feeling. Help our classroom get a much-needed facelift for the new year!

And who doesn't love new school supplies?

With the funding from our project, our special education students will get new folders and envelopes to put their work and money in. Our students earn a lot of class money during the school year, and the envelopes get ripped with being stuffed with too much money and often need replacing throughout the year. We are also in need of new folders due to the students that come and go from our school after each break. With new folders, all of our students get their own, new folder when they arrive in our room.
