This project is fully funded

My Students

Every day we start off by saying, "I AM AN AWESOME PERSON!" Through the learning of history, I strive to empower my students with the tools and knowledge necessary to become the next great leaders using innovative techniques!

Our school is a place where students are always learning, always safe, and always having fun!

My students come to school each and everyday, check their outside world at the door and enter into the world of teaching and learning head first!

My Project

As an educator and a believer in the power arts education has on children, I seek to always include art projects as a form of assessment in my class. In order to make history class enjoyable and learning fun I am asking for art supplies. I believe that children learn best when they are able to use their artistic abilities in order to create something meaningful, beautiful and historically accurate. By working on group projects to create display boards, posters, and campaign ads students are able to see for themselves how much of an impact their opinions can have! Art is a catalyst for lifetime learning and continual growth in education!
