My Students

The students that I serve at the middle school are nearly all from low-income households. My students are working on changing our building's culture. Often basic supplies and being prepared for class are all that is needed to make positive change. This project is being set up for our program-- WEB. WEB is "Where Everybody Belongs." It is an effort to dramatically change our school culture by partnering 8th grade students with 5th grade students. The eighth grade students are developed to encourage and support our 5th Grade students as they transition into a middle school setting.

This project, "Caught in the WEB" would allow the coordinators of the program to support and encourage our 8th grade students throughout the mentoring leadership process.

We want to create a visual display-- " Caught in WEB that will highlight all of their accomplishments and be a visual for all of our students.

My students are in need of positive reinforcement, encouragement, and support. This donation would serve a building of over 800 students and materials will be used to support and encourage our students and prepare them for a successful school.
