I teach 5th grade in a classroom with 27 energetic students who are very excited and eager to learn. My students have a wide variety of socioeconomic status and diverse ethnic backgrounds. Our school is a Title I school with a large number of students coming from low-income homes and at risk populations. The majority of my classroom receives Free or Reduced-Rate lunches and all students receive free breakfast. While I may not be able to control their home life, I can guarantee when my students come to school, they will feel safe, welcomed and loved within my classroom.
My Project
As an educator it is my responsibility to do what I can to reach all learning styles within my classroom environment. With support from this donation my students will have a flexible spot every day to learn where they feel most productive. Our classroom is inside a small portable with limited workspace; this project will allow my students to work on the ground with a sturdy portable lap desk to hold Chromebooks, papers or books. My students also enjoy working outside when the weather is nice; these lightweight workspaces will allow us to take the classroom anywhere and still be able to comfortably work.
Nearly all 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
