My Students

I currently teach in a Title One school. This means that most of our students come from low income families. Many of our families are living well below the poverty level and are only able to experience many things through their education.

Although these students come from challenging backgrounds, they never let it stop them from doing their best and working toward their goals.

My hope is to give these students the very best art education so they may one day use the skills that I have taught them to better the world.

My Project

My school is looking to revamp our overrun school garden.

We have all of the garden tools needed to get started, but that is where our resources end.

Years ago, our school had a beautiful thriving garden. However, over the years since the teacher who started the garden retired, it has sadly taken a turn for the worst.

Our school is looking to eventually get our STEM certification in the next few years and a garden would help greatly.

My goal is to help teach our students to appreciate the earth and to take pride in the work that is needed to make something beautiful.
