My Project

Hi, I am a 8th grade math teacher in New Orleans, Louisiana. The goal this year is joy with a purpose.

Giving my kiddos something to look forward to, a warm and inviting environment is priority.

Only then will learning happen! We need to get back to the basics! Helping our students do the ground work to create a brighter future for us all!

These items will help the students who aren't able to afford them be able to compete with the competitive world and give them a chance to succeed.
