My Students
A typical day in my classroom runs like the Polar Express. There are surprises, magic, and trust all rolling along on an unpredictable track. My students believe in their own magic for learning new things. It's the little things that make all the difference in a classroom.
My students live in a high-poverty neighborhood with more challenges than anyone could ever know.
These young children are faced with problems that are even too overwhelming for most adults to handle. The students come from all different backgrounds, but most come from homes where there are economic struggles. They desperately want to learn and just need the tools to do so.
My Project
If sports are introduced at an early age, it can become part of kids' lives! Teamwork, responsibility, and sportsmanship are important skills to have as an adult. This will be taught using the scoreboard.
This scoreboard will teach a sense of responsibility and teamwork.
Kids and teens learn how to work together. They will try their best, and be proud of the results. But they also learn that, ultimately, how to be a responsible adults.
Sportsmanship will be taught through the use of a scoreboard. Students will be taught how to lose and win gracefully.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
