My Students
Welcome to our school! We're a diverse bunch, but what's evident is that we are a community. We are a neighborhood school with about 80% of students walking to or being dropped off at school by a guardian. We are a high-poverty school, but these students are motivated to learn and want to be engaged in their learning.
Being an inclusive school, our school is full of students with diverse abilities, integrating both general and special education in one room.
These students have differing skills, but one thing they have in common is a love for learning.
These students are energetic and enthusiastic! Unfortunately, many of them are missing basic academic skills in the areas of literacy, math, and writing. This year we are focusing on closing the achievement gap and creating a school full of confident, successful students.
My Project
Each year students complete numerous state and district-mandated tests. In order for students to perform their best, they need both energy and focus.
We want to give our intermediate students energizing snacks to help give them a boost of energy and help them to focus on their tests.
These snacks of chips, granola bars, mints, and fruit snacks will give the students a break from testing and a much-needed boost in energy to do their best. Our school budget doesn't have room for us to provide these much-needed snacks to our students. These snacks would be shared among third through fifth-grade students.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
