My Students

I teach a phenomenal fifth-grade class at a TK-5 school in Southern California. The school I work at has won California Distinguished School in 2020 and is a finalist for the National Center for Urban School Transformation Award. Our students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds, but they always make the most of what we have. Our school population is largely Hispanic with a very large population of English Language Learners.

Every student enrolled at our school receives free breakfast and lunch daily.

I am constantly amazed by all the challenges presented to these students each day. They enter the classroom each day ready and willing to learn! I am proud to be their teacher.

My Project

For this project, I am requesting three electronic whistles and three new volleyballs. The electronic whistles will allow me to not have to blow on the metal whistle. Traditional whistles get old and dirty and full of germs. These new whistles can even be used by students since they do not need to be blown on.

Using electronic whistles is much more sanitary while teaching during a pandemic.

The volleyballs are such a big hit with my class. My class loves those particular volleyballs since they are soft on their hands they can use them for wall ball. Thank you for considering donating to my project.
