My Students

I teach special education in Oakland Unified. I work at a high school supporting students with a wide range of needs in all content areas.

My amazing students have returned to an nearly empty classroom after being at home for 1.5 years.

They range in age from 14-16 and are all working hard to do their best and to make the most of a very difficult situation.

There is not a day that I do not feel lucky to have my job doing the work that I do! My students struggle to find their place as learners in school but I see them as creative, funny, and deeply empathetic young adults who are a testament to who they are and the bright future they deserve.

My Project

My students come to school hungry and before I can ask them to work hard and attend to their academics, I need to feed them. The difference between learning on an empty stomach and having nourishment is frequently the difference between working and checking out.

We have been fortunate to have generous donations of food to accompany my own purchases this year but as we reach the end of January, we are close to running out.

We are entering the last stretch of the school year and my hope is to finish out this challenging year on a positive note.
