My Students

I am a teacher in a Title I school. My classroom is made up of EC children and typically developing students. I have students who have special needs and behavioral challenges. My classroom also has students who are learning English as a second language. My students are in a low-income school with very little funding.

My students try so hard to learn new things!

They work hard every day to learn the new things that are needed for school. They love playing in the math and science center but needs some help to make it educational for them on their level.

My Project

My students come from low income families and they don't have the chance to explore with different art materials. With the help of donations to this project my students will be able to explore with paint brushes, pompoms, glitter and other great art items.

Let's help my students learn to explore thru art.

My students will be able to draw, paint and make great art projects with the supplies in this project. My students will be able to create a project to take home and show off to family and friends. This project will boost their creativity. Please donate to this project.
