My Students

Our students come to us from a variety of ethnic cultures. We serve a population of students with over 30% coming from low-income socioeconomic backgrounds. Our middle school serves over 1200 students. My students include special needs, ESL, and 504 students with a variety of accommodations.

We are Texas strong and a community that sticks together and helps our fellow neighbors and friends.

Our students continually give back to the community through service learning projects. They work hard to provide food, clothing, and toys to those in need, to clean up our roads with trash pick up, and to perform music concerts for our local retirement home.

My Project

Please help me in getting my students a Chromebook to guide their own learning. We use the in-class Chromebooks to do homework, watch cooking videos, and generate inventive ideas for redesigning old recipes with new twist flavor combinations.

The students learn about cooking and baking techniques while they guide their own path in researching recipes, exploring new ideas for cooking projects, and finding new recipes for our class to learn how to cook or bake.

We could really use your support in helping us guide our own learning while we strive to learn new and interesting ideas about cooking and baking. You are making a difference in education, one project at a time!!!
