My Students

The school I am teaching in is in an urban area. The students in my school are extremely motivated to learn and have made tremendous progress this school year. They love to read and write and have started wanting to type and publish their stories! They look forward to hands-on activities during math and science.

My students deserve the best education possible and appreciate the support they receive from family, friends, and the community.

These students are going to make the future bright and amazing!

My Project

Our school is under construction this school year to create a 21st-century learning building. We are extremely excited to be moving back into a "brand new building"! While our school is under construction, we have been relocated to a building without air conditioning. It is only spring and already our classroom is extremely warm! We can only imagine how hot it will be when temperatures outside are over 90 degrees. Having a portable air conditioner in our classroom will keep us cool so we can stay focused on our assignments.
