We are a Title 1 School, meaning at least 40% of the families in our school are considered low income . The Title 1 policy is “committed to closing the achievement gap between low-income students and other students” as per the U.S. Department of Education.
Our school has some of the most creative, intelligent, imaginative students around.
We are proud of the diversity in our school, which we tap into in order to learn about the world around us. We celebrate our similarities and our differences.
My Project
We want to create amazing writers, and with the use of all of these supplies, we can make that happen! We want to procure paper, highlighters, pens, and other writing tools to help create our best work. With Post-it’s, we can constructively critique and edit each other’s work to learn more about reading and writing. With binding and laminating materials, we can feel like our work is a real, true writing piece.
“I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn.”
— Anne Frank
We are so proud of the work we produce, and we love to share it with everyone. We have publishing parties, where we share our stories with the whole school and our parents. This builds upon our great school community!
