My Students

My students have done the most amazing job transitioning into distance learning. However, some have struggled emotionally and socially.

My students are imaginative and fun-loving kids.

They come from low-income households and have not had much experience with the world outside their small community.

Many of my students don't have the ability to learn online. Many depend on worksheet packets and whatever books they have at home. Despite the hardships they are facing with school being closed, they are eager learners.

When Mayor DeBlasio announced that schools would be closed for the remainder of the year, many of my students' hearts were broken.

As seniors in the school, they lost all of senior activities, and contact with their friends.

My Project

As our seniors step out of our elementary classrooms, and off to the world of middle school, we would like to offer some words of wisdom. Help us to provide them with a graduation CLASSIC, while giving them a memory of their time with us at school. Each book will be signed by the student's 5th grade teacher, giving them some words of encouragement as they enter the next chapter of their lives. It was so hard ending their elementary career under these conditions, let's help them make it one to remember!
