My Project

My students are just the most loving children and deserve to have very opportunity as other students. They are inquisitive, love to learn and LOVE to work with their partners.

Having a classroom air purifier will be an added form of relief for students, families and myself as we still deal with the ongoing issues of COVID, in addition to regular colds and flus.

Helping to lessen absenteeism due to illness will have a HUGE impact on learning! The first thing needed to teach them is for them to be present in class! Help me to make everyone feel a bit more safe in today's learning environment. With love and appreciation!
