My Students
My students motivate me each and every day. They are thoughtful, strong, funny, insightful, kind, driven young people who push me each and every day to be a better teacher, and a more socially conscious individual. They demand so much from me, as I do from them.
My students face a variety of challenges--they attend school in an underfunded district, in a city plagued by segregated violence, run by individuals who fail to acknowledge the link between the two.
Despite the shortcomings of many of the politicians and leaders around them, my students come to school each and every day with an eye toward the future. They work hard to do their best, overcoming obstacles no child should face as hurdles to education, shaping themselves to be the change-makers we need in our workplaces and public institutions.
My Project
Many of my students dislike reading, or simply find it a task to complete for school. Through a free lending library in my classroom, students will have an opportunity to pick up a great book to read over a break or the summer, without any hurdles in their way.
Literature and the social sciences intersect in dynamic ways--having this library will enable me to recommend and lend a book when a student's interest is sparked by a particular topic or issue.
By fueling my students curiosities beyond what they expect, beyond what is on the syllabus, these books will benefit my students through the impactful stories of humanity that lies woven into these narratives.
