My Students

My crew of fun-loving, energetic third graders come to school excited to learn new things every day!

My class is predominantly composed of Native American students from low socio-economic homes.

One-hundred percent of students receive free breakfast and lunch at school.

I strive to create a classroom environment that is filled with engaging educational experiences that inspire my students to become life-long learners. I really want my students to thrive despite what they may be going through outside of school.

My Project

Our classroom library is absolutely brimming with books! We have been able to add so many new titles to our classroom library this year, thanks to a couple of Donors Choose projects and our wonderful donors! Unfortunately, this has created a new problem... we are in desperate need of a new bookshelf to house all of our books!

This beautiful bookshelf would give us more space to store our ever-expanding library.

Right now our books are crammed onto a few shelves. Having another bookshelf would allow me to organize our books by series and level, making them easily visible and more accessible to my students.
