The students who take my engineering and robotics classes are a part of a large, urban school and come from many different cultural, ethnic, and economic backgrounds. However, these pieces of their identities do not define them.
The students who take my classes are curious, creative, and in general, they are thinkers.
They come in every day willing to learn and be challenged. They are future engineers and scientists, and I want to help start them off on the right foot.
My Project
Making sure that my students stay healthy and are in a clean environment is a top priority. Working to make sure that our classroom is germ free will help my students stay healthy through the cold and flu season.
By making sure that we have a clean classroom, I can make sure that my students do not miss school because they are sick.
If my students have healthy bodies, they will be more focused on learning. Providing my students with Dial soap, Kleenex tissues, and Clorox wipes will help make sure that they can learn in a stress-free environment.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
