My Students

Our students come to us primarily from Central and South America. Many of them do not speak English upon entering our school. As English Learners not only do they have the daunting task of learning English just to get by in the world, but, must also learn mathematics and science as well.

I am working with with a group of energetic fifth graders that are eager to learn and have lots of personality!

The students can't wait to get in the building and start their day. They not only want to learn, but to succeed. With the appropriate level of support and instructional materials, I know that my students can and will be successful!

My Project

This has been a trying year. Students have returned to school after a year and a half. They have had to reaccumulate themselves to being in school every day and following a more rigorous schedule and academic demands. They are working hard but sometimes need a little "extra" incentive to keep striving.

By donating to this project, you will not only provide my students with a little extra something special when they work hard but you will encourage them to stay focused, preserve and achieve their academic goals for the year!

These small extrinsic tokens will assist my students in their quest for success.
