"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education." — Martin Luther King Jr.
That is our goal here at our school and as a staff.
We strive to teach both the importance of education and character. You will find children from all walks of life, some who have it all, and some who have lives that would break your heart. My students work hard and are excited to learn and grow. Something that brings them all together is our school, and I have found, for some, it is their safe haven. I love the enthusiasm my students all have for learning, and they love to discover new things.
One hundred percent of our school's children receive free lunch. We also border a reservation and have farms all around our rural area. As you can imagine, we are a very diverse school with many cultures that flow through our halls. It is a great place to work, and the children are incredible kids to teach. I love my job!
My Project
I am so excited for this year! We are turning the volume up in our classrooms as a third grade team, we have a story in our reading curriculum about a family that plays baseball. So why not turn our room into a baseball stadium and create a unit filled with lots of team work and fun! I am asking for your help in getting some decor for my room along with some fun treats and games to help up the ante.
We are also going to be celebrating Rock Your School in October and we are going to have a dinosaur day!
I am asking for your help in getting excavation kits, dino rings, and other fun items for that day.
Last, we are in need of some recess equipment. We need balls and jump ropes to replace those that have been lost or broken.
