My Students

A quaint urban inner-city on Lake Michigan is known for its beauty, small-town charm, growth in a diverse population, and dedication to excellence in education for all children. It is important to view each and every one of our students from a multicultural lens. With this, each student should have the same opportunities to thrive and grow.

95% of our students are economically disadvantaged.

My students need extra attention academically, socially, and emotionally. The students I serve are 5th-grade students. A high percentage of my class are minority students, many of my students have unique learning needs.

My Project

All of our students want to learn about financial literacy. Our classes have children who happen to have challenging financial situations. Despite their socio-economically disadvantaged position, they are very eager to learn how to earn, manage, save, and share their money.

The financial games, faux money, and books will help students acquire the basic knowledge to be more fiscally astute individuals that will be transferred to their community.

Finally, once children discover that money is a tool for them to control and put to good use rather than simply seeing themselves as only consumers of goods this will enhance the environment not only in the classroom but in the community they live in as well.
