My Students

You can find our school in the beating heart of Chicago and a short distance from downtown. Our school is a Title I school in where all students get free or reduced-price lunch. 91% of our students come from low income households. Ethnic groups include 12.2% Black, 80% Hispanic, 3.9% White, and 3.9% Other. 48% of students are categorized as English Learners. 34% of students are Diverse Learners.

Our school a second home to many of our unique students who have strong community roots.

Many students are second generation students whose parents also attended the school. If you are at our school you can count on having a second family support system.

My Project

As the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade math teacher I plan on making video lessons that my students can watch while we are conducting e-learning. My school is 91% low income and many of my students do not have a device to access materials on. Many rely on a parents cell phone. I thought that by making short video lessons they can watch them on a parents phone and then continue the work in their math book.

It gives me comfort knowing that my kiddos won't miss out on lessons and being able to see one another if they have a Chromebook to do so.

I love knowing I can provide them with video lessons and print out and deliver materials to those who might need them. I just can't wait for us to all be back in the classroom together!
