My Students

My students (boys and girls) are exceptionally gifted and in science particularly. I am lucky to teach them AP Chemistry.

The curriculum is very extensive and intense, with many labs to perform.

My students invest a lot of time in their coursework and most will take the corresponding AP Exam. It is crucial to many families because the students, provided that they get a score above 3, can get college credit at most colleges. Also, they get better prepared for college.

My Project

We recently received a citation because the storage cabinets that we have were not in compliance with the latest safety standards.

All three of us chemistry teachers are posting a project in the hopes that your generosity will guide you to help us keep our students safe.

Indeed, this time of the year, the school does not have the funds necessary to change all our current cabinets.

This is why am kindly requesting: a flammables storage cabinet that meets all applicable OSHA and NFPA #30 standards for the storage of flammable liquids.

I thank you very much for being on this website. We, teachers, need you! Thank you!
