My Students

My first graders are awesome! They are explorers and they are constantly on the move. I constantly emphasize the importance of being safe, being kind, being respectful, and being responsible each day in our little classroom. I work with 21 amazing and hardworking students who are extremely eager to learn, participate, and support each other's learning throughout the day.

Our school is a Title I school that serves many military families that are connected to Fort Bragg and 100% of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch and we are a low wealth district in Cumberland county.

My class is full of students with a variety of interests, experiences, needs, and strengths. With the resources, structure, and the need to apply their curiosity, they will continue to develop into strong learners and balanced individuals. I may not be able to control their home lives, but I really try to provide meaningful and memorable experiences for them every day.

My Project

This pandemic has caused me to think about the importance of having a classroom that is prepared to make sure viruses are not passed to one another and to teach my students how important it will be to have good hygiene when we return to school.

I would like to be proactive by requesting personal protective equipment to stop the spreading of illnesses in my classroom.

Having clear plexiglass sneeze guards will enable my students to be at school and provide them with some protection, as well as, give us all a peaceful mind during our school day.

Help me give my students plexiglass sneeze guards to make sure they have a classroom environment that helps keep them healthy so that they will have a safe and productive year in first grade.
