My Students
My elementary school services K-5 students in Philadelphia. The families and neighbors here are close and supportive. Unfortunately, the student population is 100% economically disadvantaged.
We are very proud of our school community.
We are a community of diverse students dedicated to becoming lifelong learners and productive citizens. All of the students here follow the 3 Rs which represent our core beliefs. The students are Respectful, Responsible, and Ready.
My students will take full advantage of any generosity given to them. Thank you, for your consideration and time.
My Project
My fourth grade students need to learn about energy and there is no more fun way than by learning using Hot Wheels cars and tracks.
My students will learn about potential and kinetic energy by designing tracks with loops and jumps!
Using the various shaped cars and trucks students will test their tracks to see how weight, shape, and position effect the outcome of the tracks that they design. All of their work will be done in teams where they will work on their 21st century skills of communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. My students will love learning about energy with their speedometry kits!
Nearly all 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
