My Students

My students are passionate learners that are looking to deepen their knowledge of algebra. Our classroom is a safe and vibrant environment. Students consistently come to hang out in the math room during their lunch periods and after school.

They make the space warm and welcoming for all that enter.

Although many students come from low income households, they are rich in knowledge and kindness.

They are caring and compassionate, and they are looking to move on to AP coursework and college level classes in the near future.

My Project

Our scholars are in need of hygiene packets due to the fact that we serve a high volume of students that come from low-income households. These students are often on public assistance and receive Title I funding. A lot of our scholars are living in shelters that may not have the means to provide these products to these students.

In order for students to engage in learning, they must first have their basic needs met.

We as a school, want to serve our students holistically which entails helping students meet their physiological needs.
