My Students

My school is full of multicultural events throughout the school year. My parents and students work hard to maintain their culture. Parents have various ethnic backgrounds and families from India, China, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Korea. My parents are supportive, respectful, and helpful. I have student families who greatly value the quality of education for their child and appreciate the time and effort put in.

My students LOVE to read, write, and create.

They are bright children with great motivation who come to school every day ready to learn. They have a great desire to succeed. We do this by displaying their work nicely on the walls for a positive classroom environment. The students at my school are friendly, encouraging, and helpful to others. They are curious about the world around them. I have student jobs for each of my students to encourage independence.

In the classroom, we would put the supplies to great use. I would GREATLY appreciate your support and generosity towards my classroom supplies. Thank you so much!

My Project

Hello!

I am asking for donations towards new flex seating in my classroom.

I am so excited to add these Lakeshore seats, because I know how much my students would LOVE using them. They are compact, so they can be stored away easily and brought out to use at any time. The students would use these on a daily and weekly basis for various activities. One activity is called Library DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) around the room, which is done once a week. Students love reading around the room and these would get a lot of use.

Thank you for considering my project!!
