My Project

My students amaze me every day. They come to class ready to learn while navigating a new language, a new culture, and the challenges of high school—all at the same time. They show incredible courage, perseverance, and hope for their future.

Expo markers give them a safe way to practice and take risks without fear of being wrong.

Binders help them stay organized and reduce stress as they manage assignments in multiple classes. Highlighters, pencils and erasers to support their understanding by helping them focus on key ideas and new vocabulary.

These simple tools make a powerful difference. They help my multilingual students feel confident, capable, and supported—not just in my ML class, but in every classroom they enter.
