My Students

Our school is a small, rural Pre-K through fifth-grade school with a student population of 246. The students here work hard and seem to always have a positive attitude about school. They enjoy learning new things and being a part of the community here. Being in a rural school makes it difficult for our students to participate in team sports that are offered in the closest town. Many of our students come from low-income homes, and they are faced with difficult situations.

Our students have good hearts, and our faculty and staff strive to give them as many opportunities for success as we possibly can.

Being at school is sometimes their only opportunity to see a different world other than the one that they live in every day.

My Project

Distancing learning has been very difficult for my students to practice their reading skills. These sandpaper letters would be a great help in teaching my students their letters. I will send home packets with the letters They will be learning while having fun. These are the things my students will remember. The number rod stands will be use to organize and store the red rods and number rods so students can use them easily.

Help me give my students the resources they need to improve their reading skills and keep our materials organized.

Together we can make a difference.
