Classroom Re-born at Dear-born!

My Project

I am so excited to meet my new students in Roxbury, MA. For those of you who knew me from my time in Hartford, CT, I am a hard-working, dedicated teacher who loves her students and loves to supply them with all the items they need to succeed both in school and in life. I just switched districts to Boston Public Schools and will be teaching chemistry and AP Environmental Science to students at DSA in Roxbury, MA.

Please help me to present my new students with new materials on their very first day, including binders, highlighters, and paper.

I want my students to see my classroom the way it was in Hartford: organized and with clear objectives for student success. I found over the years that the best way to facilitate this in the classroom is to provide models of what a student should use to achieve organization and success. These binders will be just the thing and will allow us to build our scientific knowledge throughout the semester/year.

I am so thankful for the continued support from donors across the United States. Without you all, I would not have been able to succeed the way I did in my previous district. I am so excited to bring my knowledge and your support to a new group of students, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart in advance for your donations.
