My Project
What a beautiful sight to see all students on task in a quiet room because they are able to focus on the task at hand, rather than being distracted by other students movements or the sounds coming from computers; all because students do not have headphones or other things to help them in completing classwork.
Students should focus to unpack and combine information in order to attain mastery of tasks.
Gifts enable us to put in place structures that will enable the maximization of learning in the classroom.
Our rounded students need other activities such as games, rewards and stimulations to achieve our goal.
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
