My Students
Our students come from hard-working families who don't always have a lot of money. They're good kids who want to learn! I'm proud to say that, despite our challenges, parents in other areas of our city send their children to us because they know we have a learning environment here.
We work hard at our school, and we know that learning must be enjoyable to be educational.
We get our hands on our learning every chance we get. It could be using Cheetos to dust 'pollen' from flower to flower, dancing out our anti-bullying rap, or forming an island out of play dough to demonstrate our landforms.
My Project
Our area of DC is a vibrant, diverse community that is reflected in our school population. Along with Covid, our students are now being inundated with a lot of cultural issues that must be engaged when/if/how we return to learning next year.
Please help me work with our diverse population with materials that show them that all races, genders, and people are equal.
As hesitant as I am to approach this topic, it is (and always has been) a must for all kids but especially in a city as diverse as ours.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
