My Students

Remember creating an amazing project or making something special? Well every day my students work hard at creating beautiful things. We have celebrations, science fairs, and experiments in class. Students should be able to capture that moment and keep it with them forever.

My students are from a very diverse, low economic community.

Although they live amongst some wealthy areas they do not live that exact lifestyle. My students live in homes, apartments, shelters, and foster care. Yet they are privileged everyday with teachers and administration who truly care. We work hard at creating a home and a learning environment fit for any child.

My Project

By helping us purchase our Polaroid camera you will ensure that each child gets to hold onto those great memories. You will allow each child to someday look back and remember their hard work and times with people who care. We will use our camera to take instant photos of our experiments and projects, analyze them, watch before and afters and capture moments that are unforgettable.

By having an instant camera students will be able to snap shot any moment that they want to treasure instantly.

Usually I take pictures with my phone and then email them to myself and then send them to CVS and print days later. By having this camera students will be able to go home with that special moment right in their hand. Your donation will help put a smile on students faces that will last a lifetime.
