My Students

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn."

A typical day in my classroom is very busy and productive.

Students love to learn and are eager to do hands-on activities in the classroom and the laboratory setting. "Opportunity is often missed because it is disguised as hard work."

My students are from a tight-knit, rural community who love to show their school spirit and attend many activities provided by our school. We have small classes, and students get along well with each other. Our school shows pride through the hallways and has good school spirit.

My Project

We are requesting gardening equipment ranging from shovels, a drip line for our irrigation system, a handheld sprayer to put out fertilizer to plants, landscaping tarp to put around newly planted fruit trees, and a gas can so we have means to fill up our tiller for the garden. These items will make our manual labor in the garden a little bit lighter of a load, but of course our students always enjoy outdoor activities that get them active and doing something productive as well!

"If you have a garden in your library, everything will be complete." – Marcus Tullius Cicero, Letter to Varro, 1st century AD
