My Students

My students live in a rural Utah town in a low-income neighborhood. Hardworking parents often don't have time or don't know how to fully support learning at home. Frequently, the effects of poverty manifest in a child's inability to focus and tune out distractions which are skills needed for learning.

My students love learning and are committed to building a better future through hard work and practice!

Title I schools face the challenges of poverty that other schools do not. Research is documenting the impact that poverty has on education. Nearly 60% of students in our school receive free or reduced-price meals. A third are native Spanish speakers. My students need a school that understands their special challenges and intervenes to help.

We are preparing today's students for the jobs of tomorrow. Essentially, we are teaching students the ways to think critically and not just training them on vocational skills. I do not even know what jobs we will need in thirty years, but I do know that they need to read, do math, think analytically, and problem solve.

My Project

Many of the students of my Title 1 school don't have warm weather gear to protect them from freezing temperatures. Keeping track of a winter coat can be hard, but gloves and mittens are small and super easy to loose. Allowing students a chance to get fresh air during recess is so important even during the freezing cold winter months.

Keeping my students warm during recess can make a big difference when we return to the room to learn.

Freezing cold fingers can be painful and the fine motor work of writing is impaired.
