My Students

My students are incredible thinkers that love to learn.

Most of my students come from low socio-economic backgrounds where resources are not always readily available.

My students love to be in school but during this uncertain time, we have and will go virtual.

My Project

Our classroom has been through many transitions over the past few years. Many of our materials have been misplaced or damaged due to these transitions.

An organized classroom allows students to practice independence.

This project will give us materials to organize our classroom both inside and on the playground. We have so many amazing resources in our classroom that we would like to preserve for many years to come. The large outdoor box is a safe place to house our blocks from the elements. Organizational materials for inside the classroom allows us to label everything for easy access and clean up.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
