My school is located in Queens, N.Y., the most culturally and ethnically diverse neighborhood in the world.
The children who enter my classroom, come from all over NYC.
As such, they carry with them a wealth of knowledge, that contributes to a dynamic classroom. However, many of my students also come from economically disadvantaged homes. Therefore, most of the time, resources are scarce.
My Project
My students, who are all seniors, will use their new laptop computers to create their digital senior exit portfolios. My children, all 125 of them, will create a living document that exemplifies their best work. The portfolio is composed of works from all content areas, as well as personal interests, that have been compiled over the course of the past four years. At our school, the portfolio is an innovative, alternative assessment.
By supporting this project, you will not only support the class of 2016, but future graduating classes as well.
The senior exit portfolio is completed and presented by every graduation candidate, prior to the commencement exercises. Your contribution will help an entire generation of up and coming, college bound, young professionals.
More than three‑quarters 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
