My Students

My students attend a diverse, inclusive, and amazing Title I school in upstate New York. I am in my 16th year teaching in this wonderful school district!

I teach students with special needs who are truly amazing!

They work hard​ but struggle with a variety of subject areas. I work with intermediate students to provide additional support in math and literacy. I work with an all-star staff and I'm lucky to work with many of the classrooms in my school. All of the students at my school receive free breakfast and lunch. Also, all of the students I work with always try their best each and every day. The students at my school are fantastic and I truly love working with them so much!

My Project

We are in desperate need of some new bookshelves for our classroom and a turn it in organizer. Our bookshelves are currently over stuffed and one of them is falling down. By having these new bookshelves students will be able to easily access books in the classroom. The shelf I currently have has been secured with several pegs and some tape. These new shelves will provide a quick and easy way to access and borrow these books. Also, the turn in your work organizer will be used on a daily basis by students to turn in work and other assignments.
