My Project

I love my students because they show up every day ready to try, even when learning is hard. Many of them have learning disabilities, and while they’re just as smart and capable as their peers, they need different tools to succeed. The Lysol, journals , and resources will help them thrive in the general education setting. Every day, as I stand at the door greeting my students, I’m reminded why I chose this path. Their smiles, their curiosity, and their unique ways of seeing the world fill me with purpose and every one of them deserves the chance to learn in a way that works for them.
