My Students

My elementary students work hard in class. They put their best foot forward and are inspired to do better. Their parents value education greatly but are often unable to support learning outside of the school day.

The students of today will be the leaders of tomorrow; future doctors, lawyers, entrepreneurs, engineers, and software designers.

As a teacher, it is my job to prepare these students for careers that are not in existence yet. By giving my students opportunities in the classroom to grow and succeed, I can see that I am shaping the future of our great nation.

My Project

Our campus just had a book vending machine project funded, but now we need your help to get the books to fill our new vending machine. We have selected a wide variety of books to cover all groups of students on our campus so that every child will have something they can look forward to purchasing. The vending machine works on a token system, and students will earn those tokens from teachers on the campus throughout the school year.

The picture books and chapter books in this project will be the next step in making reading a reward on our campus.

We know that a love for reading starts young, and we are prepared to give our students the chance to learn to LOVE reading. Your generous gifts will allow our students to be rewarded with actual books for good behavior, birthday treats, or going above-and-beyond with classroom academics.
