My Students

Our school is located in an urban, inner-city area in Ohio. My students are part of an inclusion model at my school. Throughout the school day, I support students in general education classrooms and provide direct instruction in my smaller resource room for the areas of study skills, reading, writing, and math. I have a wonderful group of students on my caseload.

My hardworking students strive every day to meet their own individualized academic and social goals.

They amaze me every day with their hard work and effort. My students are truly inspiring!

My Project

I have a HUGE classroom library without a home to store all my books on. I just recently moved to a new building and could not take my two large metal bookshelves with me. I would like my students to be able to borrow and read from my book collection, but I need a place to store all the books.

“Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.” – Margaret Fuller

Reading is so very important! My goal is to get good books in the hands of my students. Please help me grow tomorrow's leaders by supporting this project.
