My Project

My 7th and 8th Graders are truly special. In order to be successful within our classroom walls supplies are necessary. Even our most basic supplies are the hardest to afford so the supports would be so appreciated. We are requesting Notebooks, Document Camera, Pencils, Fidgets and more.

My goal is to help these amazing Gentlemen believe in themselves, their future and their capabilities.

I see endless potential and success when I work with my boys.

They deserve the chance to become the person they aspire to be and I would like to be apart of their journey of growth.

It is a true honor to work with my scholars and it is my goal to make their time within my classroom walls full of support, growth, and love.
