My Project
My students are the kind of kids who dream big, feel deeply, and show up each day ready to grow—even when learning gets tough. They’re bright, bold, and beautifully unique, with a spark of curiosity that deserves to be nurtured. What makes them truly special is their heart: they support one another, celebrate differences, and thrive when given the space to explore and express themselves.
This project will help me create a multifunctional student center in our classroom—a space where creativity, problem-solving, and emotional growth come together.
The STEM and architecture kits will encourage critical thinking and collaboration, while the sensory tools and SEL resources will give students healthy outlets to regulate emotions and refocus. Our enrichment activities and brain games will keep eager minds engaged and inspired. Whether they need a calming break, a challenging task, or a creative outlet, this center will meet them where they are.
My goal is to provide a safe, empowering environment where students can build confidence in both their academic, social, and emotional skills. With your support, this dream student space will become a daily part of their growth—a place to build, breathe, and bloom.
More than half of students from low‑income households
