My Students

My school serves students from urban areas. 36% of our students come from low-income areas and nearly half of our students receive free and reduced-price lunch. Our school has a large minority population and we house one of our county's programs for English Language Learners, with many students from Mexico, Japan, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. We also have an active LGBTQ population who organize a Gay-Straight Alliance and collaborate with GLSEN.

Additionally, we house magnet programs for Creative and Performing Arts and Engineering.

Thus, our student body is very diverse. Out of the 6 public high schools in our county, our school has a reputation for having a friendly student body and teachers who embrace diversity.

My Project

During virtual school, I've found several resources that I can use in the classroom to facilitate learning. For example, on Edpuzzle, students view (and listen to) videos, and the app allows me to embed questions to verify comprehension periodically throughout the video. Another online app we use is Classkick. On Classkick, I can upload a photo, document, video, voice recording, or link. Then students can give me a written or recorded response.

As school begins to transition back to what we consider "normal," I intend to continue using these resources to enhance student learning in my classroom.

I intend to use these headsets with microphones so that students can continue learning with these useful apps. Last year, I asked my in-person students to bring headphones with microphones but not every student had the means to purchase this hardware. Luckily, with the help of Donors Choose, I was able to purchase 16 headsets last year. I am hoping to procure an additional 16 headsets so that each of my students (in a typical class of 32 students) has access to the best possible learning experience.
