At my school, my main responsibility is to address the needs of the "whole child" and treat every student holistically.
My students come with varying needs, and over 95% belong to impoverished homes.
Their diverse cultures, needs, and experiences mean that one size does not fit all.
At my school, I wear many hats and I facilitate a vast diversity of students' and teachers' needs alike.
I am requesting your assistance in helping students in my class with 2 boxes of three Kleenex tissues for the classroom. The 3 backpacks will be packed full with an array of school supplies that will be used for/given to students in need.
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
