My Students

Welcome to my first grade class of 22 energetic, full of life students. They are eager to learn and love to explore new and exciting things.

While resources are limited, we try to give them as much exposure and experience as we can pack into their ever growing brains.

Our school is Title 1 school with most of our students receiving free and reduced lunch.

Please help us grow our students into the best they can be through your generous offerings.

My Project

Learning how to do seatwork in a first grade classroom can be difficult at times. To help our class focus on their own work in front of them, we like to use classroom offices/partitions. This helps give us a better picture of the skills our students have mastered.

Our classroom offices are falling apart and have been used for many years.

We are in need of offices/partitions that are not falling down while trying to do classroom work. Please help us to do our best on our work. We thank you for any contributions you can help our class with.
