My Students

Fellow passionate people, are you looking for a way to invest in our future? Look no further. Who are Mr. E's students, you ask? They are creative achievers and students with unique world views that have already been molded by a myriad of life experiences. They have potential to become more, but they often lack the means to accomplish this on their own. And, most inconveniently, they are terribly obsessed with living life to the fullest.

It is contributions like yours that will help our students truly become all they can by providing all the resources they need.

Thank you for taking the time to consider our class for your donation; every bit makes a difference!

My Project

If teaching from home taught me anything, it's that my students can get work done in more than one way. Many of my more successful distance learning students were rarely viewed sitting at a desk. Being confined to an upright position for hours a day may work for most students, but I have it on good authority that a change of posture would be appreciated. Besides, sometimes you just need to lie down!

Seating in a classroom matters so much more than people think.

Something as simple as a bean bag chair can completely change the way students engage with their work. This is a small but worthy investment into our kids' learning.
