My Students
My 6th grade class is made up of students from a wide variety of backgrounds. We have everything from custom single family homes to government housing complexes. Our school is lucky enough to serve families from all over the world. Our neighborhood is diverse, but we are able to work together to succeed.
Despite their socioeconomic differences, my students work diligently to create school unity and ensure that everyone feels equal when we are at school.
These students are conscientious and committed, willing to use their brains and solve problems! They have overcome incredible challenges in their personal lives; everything from moving to a new country without knowing the language to the sorrow of divorce, from extreme poverty to racial stereotyping. These young people are choosing to find positive ways to handle the hardships they face.
My Project
Learning this year has been tricky at best, and so much of what we typically do in 6th grade has changed dramatically. We are now using technology in new and incredible ways.
These headphones will ensure that my students can hear the online content without bothering the other students around them.
Hearing clearly helps with testing, learning and working together. There are amazing things we can do on our chromebooks but most include sound and without proper headphones, my students are struggling to learn the content that is so crucial to their success.
More than a third of 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
