Our students get excited when everything is in color (color sight word cards for decoding, color pictures in science to see what we notice and wonder, and color for special occasions, projects, interactive notebooks, and bulletin boards). We need to be able to make color copies in our classrooms and school, instead of sending our request outside of the building. I am requesting your help to bring a color printer to enhance our learning, so we can continue supporting our students' learning in color.
Color makes everything better, vibrant, and POP.
Our core values of academics, community, pride, and justice allow us to advocate for all within this urban neighborhood by extending compassion and partnering with families to nurture lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and responsible citizens through STEM/STEAM, performing arts, visual arts, athletics, coding, computer science (CS), financial literacy, and mental health/social-emotional learning (SEL). We receive federal funding for programs that provide free breakfast/lunch for every student and Title I services to economically disadvantaged individuals. Our inclusive class serves military families, gifted/talented students, ESL/ELL students, special education students, and tech-savvy students.
Nearly all 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
