My Students
I teach in a Title I, public elementary school with about 500 students. My students come from very low-income communities. Many students are eager to learn and interact daily at school; however, COVID-19 has put a stop to our engagement with students. It is my hope that through DonorsChoose, we can offer as much personal attention to each child's needs as possible.
This will be the first time some of my tiger cubs will be in a classroom environment and they are excited to come back!
My students are new learners and full of potential, but the poverty level is high with 100% of our population qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Personally, I take time to get to know each child in my classroom as a whole person. My goal throughout the year is to understand their academic strengths and weaknesses as well as their character strengths and weaknesses. I love being their friend, teacher, and hopefully a role model.
My Project
Snacks are good for kids because they help them stay focused at school and on homework, give them needed nutrients, and keep hunger at bay. To lots of kids and teens, a snack is a bag of chips, some cookies, or some other low-nutrient food. Instead, think of snacks as mini-meals. Most children and teens need to eat every three to four hours throughout the day to fuel their growing, active bodies.
Please help me provide snacks for my students so they would be able to focus during class.
Your support of my class project will be greatly appreciated.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
