My Project
At this current time, I teach 11th and 12th grade at a High School in West Philadelphia. Based on the 2022-2023 Student Enrollment and Demographics, there are 389 students that attend our high school with 70% of students residing within the catchment area. There are 25% of students who have an IEP, and 1% of students who are English language learners. The ELA data for standardized testing reflects that 15% of students scored proficient. Many of my students live around the corner of the school and yet arrive invariably late. However, inconvenience aside, I have had a life-defining experience teaching at my High School. Our students are incredibly kind, straight-forward, and with intentional guidance, can be incredibly curious students. I want to help nurture that curiosity to help them become people who can take action for changing their internal and external environments for the better.
This year we will be using Study Sync as a part of our new curriculum and therefore headphones will be necessary for my students' success.
Furthermore, students will be exploring the role of unions during the Cold War and how they shaped the trajectory of the Civil Rights Movement as we know it today. The easel pad and markers will help my students realize their social needs while learning in a safe and supportive environment.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
