My Project

This is my 5th year Teaching and I absolutely love it! I love my students for their curiosity, resilience, and the joy they bring into our classroom every day. They come eager to learn, grow, and overcome challenges each with their own unique spark.

Every resource donated whether it’s a prize, a snack, or a learning tool helps us keep them motivated, engaged, and confident in their journey.

These small gestures go a long way in showing them that their hard work matters and that their community believes in their success. These snacks will do the same!
