My Project
All of my students are curious, energetic, and eager to learn. As first graders, they are building the foundation for reading, writing, and problem- solving. Help me give my little learners dry erase boards, markers, and other essential classroom supplies so they can practice their skills in a fun, engaging, and hands-on way every day.My students are special because they show up everyday with curiosity, joy, and willingness to learn- no matter what challenges they face outside the classroom.They come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique strength, personalities, and perspectives to our room.As a third-year teacher, I have learned how important it is to create and environment where students feel excited to learn and have the tools they need to succeed.With your support, our little learners will become Big Dreamers- confident, capable, and ready to take the world.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
