We seriously have some of the best students in our small-town elementary school.
My students are always ready to try something new and because of that, I want to be a better teacher every day.
I want to grow with them!
Our school includes over sixty percent free or reduced-price lunch recipients. Together our community, parents, and staff work to get us everything we need. I am so grateful to have wonderful people like you also partnering with us to help get our students everything they so deserve.
Although this year may look a little different whether in person, online, or a mix of both, I know we'll build our classroom community and become the family we always are.
Next year I will be teaching four sections of STEM classes and many of these books will inspire students at four different grade levels.
I am involved as a volunteer with our youth soccer program and love watching the excitement each Tuesday and Thursday!
My Project
We have over 140 kids in the spring soccer program. It is amazing to see that many kids coming out and getting outside!
Every Tuesday and Thursday the soccer fields are now filled with our kids as they grow both their soccer skills and their teamwork.
The best part of the youth soccer program is that it encourages parents to get involved and help with that growth as well. That is why this project is so important. It will allow every player that is out for spring soccer to take home their own soccer ball and continue playing soccer at home!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
