My Project

Our students are the best in New York. They are hard-working, kind, and generous. As their teacher, it is my job to teach them academic and social skills.

Students have expressed they want to have more enriching activities.

Students will love creating with LEGOs, and they will learn important skills such as math, science, and engineering! They will also have fun and form new friendships. They will also inspire the community when they share their wonderful creations.

While working in our club, I also want to feed our students, as they do not have extra money for snacks. After school students often go hungry and ask the teachers if they have anything extra to take home. We want to be able to provide special snacks that students can share.
