My Students

We are rural school with limited employment opportunities in our community. Exposing them to careers and opportunities after high school is what my students need.

My students need a vision to the future.

We are wanting to purchase supplies to expand knowledge on projects and how to get our students ready for the world outside high school. With your support, our students will be college AND career ready when they receive their diploma at the end of their high school career.

My Project

These glass paperweights will be part of our final project at the end of the semester for teachers. We have been lucky enough to have access to a brand new laser cutter. Students will be using their design skills to create various projects. Typically, we work on a teacher gift for our last project of the semester. These supplies will allow students to create unique gifts for their teachers that can last throughout the years. I appreciate you taking the time to look over our project and support our students.
