My Students
Our school is in a town of less than twenty thousand and all of our students get free lunch. Our district has a great technology center where my kids have learned valuable skills in construction, auto tech, welding, and more.
My students are great kids that happen to have learning difficulties.
As students with special needs, all of my kids have learning gaps. They all need individualized instruction to close the gap between where they are and where they need to be academically. Please help them continue to close their academic gaps so they will be ready for college and careers after graduation!
My Project
My students need a globe to help them understand geography. I have a world map on the wall, but students struggle to visualize how this translates to our round planet! If I have a globe, they will be able to better see where all the countries are located and how they related to each other. Many of them have never been out of our rural county, much less to another country. This makes it very difficult for them to imagine where things are around the world. Many don’t even realize where the continents are located!
More than three‑quarters 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
