My Students

Powerful, passionate, full of hope and promise, that is what living in an urban community is like to my students. Thoughts of hunger, fear and lack of options are not tolerated in my classroom. With 1,600 students in all, our Title I student body has an extended school day as well as an extended school year. The many students in my school may come from humble means, but still have the hope we all do: to go to college and have a rich and full life.

My Project

A classic literature novel, Anthem is set in the near or not so near future where freedom is a myth of the past. But in this story one person seeks the highest risk of all, the quest of knowledge.

When learning remote, being able to hear what the teacher is saying can make all the difference!

Putting on headphones clears out the background noise. With siblings around, learning in a quiet a focused place can make all the difference. By donating to my project, you are putting books in the hand of students and allowing them to close off outside distractions from the process of learning.
