My Students

Our district team travels from school to school to teach all secondary Gifted and Talented students in a low-income district with little funding. The students come from many different backgrounds. We live in a military community. These students are focused and bright. They are determined to learn.

Gifted students are tomorrow's leaders, inventors, problem-solvers and creators.

Providing them with opportunities to think critically and collaborate is essential for their success and gives them opportunities to be more college and career ready!

My Project

Please donate to bring a K'Nex roller coaster building set to bring STEM into our classroom. We would also like to have a Laser Chess set to challenge our students. Gifted Students need new and exciting ways to challenge their minds. We are always encouraging creativity and critical thinking skills in our classroom and both these items do just that. We also need chargers for our Spheros since they don't come with them. It is important that Gifted students get a well rounded education and it's even better when they can have fun. We would love to be able to brings these items into our class.
