My Project

The transition between middle school and high school is one of the most difficult periods for our youth! In order to help my class flow as smoothly as possible, I'd like to put 100% of my attention and focus on their learning. Students are South CTA are at a specialized career and and technical school that focuses on Project Based Learning. What I've realized as a teacher and as a student of the PBL process is the need for materials! These assignments are hands-on and the kids need to have access to these tools in order to further their success.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
