My Students
The students I have the opportunity to work with are creative, innovative, enthusiastic young people who are known to thank their teachers when they leave classrooms. There are over 1,100 students on campus in grades four through eight. It wasn't always like this, but in the past few years, the school has blossomed as the result of a visionary principal, progressive staff and active parent community. As a result, there is now a lottery and long waitlist for new enrollees.
Parents are coming in droves to visit the campus and see all it has to offer including a wide variety of elective classes that you would normally only have access to in high school or college.
For example, students can take Theater, Dance, Speech, Tap, Ensemble, Encore, Keyboards, Concert Band, Symphonic Band, and Art just to name a few. They can also get involved in a Community Action Team elective course, Future Teacher elective course, or be a part of ASB, Media or Yearbook. They can even learn how to use a 3D printer in a class designed to teach that skill. The students are noticeably vibrant and well-behaved. Everyone feels fortunate to be there, including me.
My Project
Last year we couldn't bake many things in our culinary class because we did not have an oven; however, the culinary classroom is currently under construction to become a state-of-the-art kitchen with new ovens. Now, we will be able to bake our hearts out. As a result, we need some rolling pins to get the fun started.
In addition, we will now be able to make candy, and so we need candy thermometers to monitor the temperature.
Of all the skills introduced in the class, baking and candy-making are the two favorites of students. These tools will enable us to get creative and keep on rolling.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
