My Students

A neighborhood elementary school, our school provides students a high-quality education that emphasizes 21st-century skills and prepares students to be real-world leaders and innovators. Designated as a welcoming school in a community hit particularly hard by the nation's largest school closing six years ago, we are a fixture in West Englewood with families attending the school for generations and regularly volunteering at the school. We are a hub for parent and family resources, hosting many Parent University events, from resume writing to college tours.

Our staff is committed to equity, ensuring that although nearly all of our students are low-income, they have access to as many resources and opportunities as possible.

We have a nationally competitive chess team that recently placed fourth in the nation, a vibrant arts education program, hands-on STEM projects at every grade level, leadership programming such as our student voice committee and bully-blockers program, cultural trips that take students all over the country, and school-wide social-emotional lessons integrated into the curriculum. It is through the extraordinary efforts and fundraising of staff, parents, and the community that these initiatives are possible, despite budget constraints.

My Project

As winter moves in and the weather gets colder, not all of my students have the warm clothes they need to dress for the weather.

No child should miss out on recess because they don't have the necessary clothes to keep them safe as temperatures dip.

I am requesting a variety of hats, gloves, fleece gaiters, and toe warmers to keep kids warm and comfortable as they travel to and from school as well as during recess. I am also requesting fruit snacks to keep their bellies full, lotion to keep their skin hydrated, and hair ties to keep their hair out of their faces while playing.
