My Students

My awesome students attend school every day. Since my students are at school all day, most consider school to be a special home away from home.

My wonderful students need the bare essentials to help them become successful in society.

Most of my students are from low-income families and are eager to learn.

My professional and highly motivated staff, in partnership with parents, encourages each child to achieve his/her full potential. In a disciplined and caring environment, based on mutual respect, each child is valued as an individual. The vision is to equip children for the demands and opportunities of the twenty-first century, by offering a differentiated, effective, and rigorous curriculum as an entitlement to all students.

My Project

My students come to school every day with a willingness to learn. Students are excited to learn more SEL skills. Some of my students are visual learners and love to see the lessons on the video screen.

Unfortunately the video projector stopped working and there is no replacement in the school.

My student need a new projector. Please help my students get a new projector so that they can continue to view their SEL lessons on the video screen. The lessons help students learn how to manage their behavior and calm down. Thank you in advance for helping my students get a new projector.
