My Students
I work at a K-8 school in a rural county in Florida. Over 80% of the students in our county come from low-income families which makes us a Title I county. Unfortunately, on October 10th, our community was hit hard by Hurricane Michael. Many homes were either damaged or destroyed. Some students were displaced from the hurricane and/or lost everything that belonged to them. It has put a huge financial strain on many residents in our community.
There are so many things that make my students so special.
We are from a small town and it feels like we are all family! My students love to read and I love to teach reading. I am a 3rd generation teacher so it runs through my blood. As a teacher, there are many times when school supplies, craft materials, daily snacks, or pizza parties come out of my own pocket. These children are amazing students and deserve the best education possible!
My Project
Our student body is growing rapidly. Our resources are having a hard time keeping up with them. Our P.E. classes need more resources to meet student demand! We want to keep our students moving and show them how to stay healthy for a lifetime!
Volleyball is a great way to teach all about power control!
We need a strong volleyball net so that our students can play games without being overly worried about how long the net will last. Students are currently holding back because they are afraid of damaging the equipment and instead it is damaging the game. We want them to stop being afraid to give it their all. Thank you very much in advance for your help!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
