My Students

My students are 16-18 years old and are studying for the AP U.S. government and politics exam. More importantly, I’m trying to help them to become active and informed citizens. The students in my classes come from a variety of racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds.

My classes are a microcosm of American society and working with them makes me optimistic about our future.

Thank you for your consideration and helping my students to become the future leaders of our country.

My Project

To help keep my students safe and to mitigate COVID-19 infections, I am requesting a HEPA air purifier. Health professionals have recommended that classrooms are safer with proper ventilation and HEPA air filters.

My students aren't thrilled about me opening the windows during a Michigan winter, so a HEPA filter would go a long way towards keeping my students safe.

I know that my students will have greater peace of mind and be able to concentrate better in my class if they know that they are in a safe learning environment.
