My Students

Greetings! This is my first year as Instructional Technology Coach at the amazing BSE where we are “Building a Community of Leaders.” We are a Title I school located in rural South Carolina. After 18 years in education, I am excited for this new journey and all the learning opportunities it will bring. I know that working with students in kindergarten through 5th grade will bring challenges that will strengthen us all. Welcome to our tech adventure and fasten your seat belts for the ride!

If there is one lesson that I have learned, it is not to place my own limitations on my students.

When you serve students in a high need, high poverty area every advantage has the potential to be life-changing. No matter what challenges our students may face in life, they come to school ready to learn and eager to explore.

My Project

These books will help students to learn the basics of coding using a program like Scratch. They will also learn about coding language and how to use these skills to design their own computer games. At our school, we are "Building a Community of Leaders" in coding. Students will have access to quality reading material that will provide the background and knowledge they need to be successful coders. No matter the level, from beginner to advanced, students will use these materials to further their knowledge.

One special emphasis will be Girls Can Code and women in the computer science industry.

Computer science is a growing career path and there are options available for anyone who has an interest and a desire to learn about technology and coding. The future techies of the world are at BSE!
