My Students

Do you remember the challenges of middle school? The fear of a locker, changing classes, and making new friends? My students are feeling those challenges every day. The students at my school in Indiana crave a desire to be known, heard, and cared for.

My students are curious and growing.

They have a desire to ask questions, share their stories, and grow from the lessons they learn.

But, that can not be done without advocating adults who challenge students in their growth.

My Project

This project was created to provide 2 things for my students. The first is food. Food is the way to the heart! When I am hanging out with students, comforting them, or if they are hungry- I love to be able to provide them with a snack. It can be the first start to breaking down the walls with your students.

The second is helping my students have happy hearts.

This project helps me refill on a few items that my kiddos love using in the office! These materials will help students be creative and express all the emotions they have!
