My Students

My students come to school to learn the essentials to become successful adults. They may come from Spanish-speaking homes or English-speaking homes, but each and every one of my students come to school to learn.

Our students strive to do the best they can, by challenging and pushing themselves to do well.

My students come from very diverse backgrounds, which makes our classroom the perfect place for debates, discussions, and hands-on activities. Diversity leads to different views on each topic we cover throughout the year.

My Project

The laser cutter will help bring more technology into the classroom by allowing my students to draw something out on paper and then watch the laser cutter bring it to a different format, whether in the form of a mirror, wood, glass, leather, etc,

Imagine the look of success on the students' faces when the laser cutter has completed the students' projects.

Technology today has changed the lives of our children, it seems to continually advance and I don't want my students left out of the excitement this laser cutter will bring to my classroom.
