My Students

When most people go to work, they are greeted by a computer, a register, or a telephone. I get greeted by tiny, smiling faces who are eager to learn. These amazing students are the reason I gladly stay till five at night, come in on the weekends, and toss and turn at night thinking about their successes and areas for improvement.

There is growing scientific evidence that shows students' environments greatly impact their ability to learn and their test scores.

My goal, through supporters like you, is to create a classroom environment and provide supplies, tech, furniture, and more that help students thrive to the best of their ability. My students are kind, giving, happy, and dedicated to their education.

They have pride in who they are, how hard they work at school, and the bond we have made. At my school, more than half of our students are economically disadvantaged, and nearly 25% of our school qualifies for special education services. Thank you for considering donating to our school family!

My Project

Please help give my students a microwave and popcorn to encourage their continued hard work. Daily, my students come to small group interventions and work hard to catch up on their reading skills. Incentives make them work even harder.

Once every child meets their obtainable, individual reading goal, we will have a class party—and this project will make that happen!

Every time a student meets their reading goal, they are one step closer to being proficient readers. My district, Chico Unified, is working hard to help all students catch up due to learning loss from the pandemic. It is my job to encourage students through positive reinforcements to work as hard as they can daily and I believe this project will give them the boost they need!
