My Students

The students in my class attend an urban school district with limited financial resources. Most of the students receive​ free or reduced-price lunch. Many of them have experienced crime in their lives and find it difficult to come to school. It can be overwhelming to know how to help. They are sweet kids with big dreams. They dream of learning, being successful athletes, helping their families, and reaching their full potential.

Many of these students must overcome obstacles such as poverty and uncertain home situations.

A high-quality educator can make a significant difference in a student’s life. When I look at my students, I see unlimited possibilities. Overall, my students living in poverty are just like other children, but they can encounter limitations and barriers that make it harder to learn, including students whose first language is not English. My main goal is to give each student the chance to have success in school and beyond.

My Project

This project is for book bins for our classroom. We would like to organize our chapter books so students can access them easily!

My students need dry erase markers for their white boards during daily instruction.

Markers dry out so quickly, so I would like to provide them with brand new ones. Storage containers would be so helpful to organize our materials and supplies while in person!

Thank you for considering this project and for supporting public education. Your donation is greatly appreciated, and goes towards a worthy cause.

Thank you!
