My Students

Our college preparatory environment is wrapped around a Social Justice theme that is integrated into the rigorous curriculum and instruction experience. My school is located within a community that has many daily challenges. While our school faces many budget challenges, we are dedicated to providing students with educational experiences that go beyond textbooks. Even more, than offering a challenging academic program, our school cultivates kind, empathetic leaders by instilling our core values. We believe that character and compassion are the cornerstones to becoming the best version of yourself that you can be.

"When you learn, Teach; When your get, Give" -Maya Angelou

My Project

Every college student needs a laundry basket, pens, notebooks, and other necessities to start their freshman year off. We are creating "college essentials" gift baskets for our graduating seniors in order to prepare them for the next stage of their education.

Every senior will be equipped for their first year of college with towels, sheets, blankets, and other supplies to start their college career off right.

Even though our seniors are moving on from our school we want all of our students to know that their journey is not over...In fact is has just begun.
