My Students

I work at an amazing school full of diversity. We have almost seven hundred students and over one hundred are English as a second language students. One hundred are Advanced Program students, along with a robust regular education program and special needs program. We call ourselves "The Greatest School on Earth," and we truly are! I am the School Counselor and Building Assessment Coordinator. I get to work with all of our amazing students, either in a the classroom setting, small groups, or individually. I am blessed to work with 700 students each year.

I want each of our students to recognize their genius and feel like an important contributor to the school's success.

My Project

Throughout the school year, our children participate in many forms of assessment, both formal and informal, to help the staff plan for each individual student's success. Many of the assessments are administered online and require the use of headphones.

We want each student to achieve their personal best.

To do this, appropriate equipment is needed. We recognize the need for each student to have access to their own headphones to ensure that all health and safety requirements are met. Our wonderful students are ready to show everyone what they can do!
