My Students

My awesome students attend school every day. Since my students are at school all day, most consider school to be a special home away from home. My wonderful students need the bare essentials to help them become successful achievers.

Most of my students are from low-income families and are eager to learn.

My school takes the time to challenge children of all abilities to achieve excellence in a wide range of academic, cultural and extracurricular activities. The vision is to equip children for the demands and opportunities of the twenty-first century, by offering a differentiated, effective, and rigorous curriculum as an entitlement to all. A professional and highly motivated staff, in partnership with parents, encourages each child to achieve his/her full potential. In a disciplined and caring environment, based on mutual respect, each child is valued as an individual.

My Project

My students come to school every day. Most of them are from low income families and may not have the same opportunities as other students. They still need to learn how to be social with other students My students need more social interaction to help them to learn how to take turns and share. My Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Class will help my students learn the skills they need. I want to group the students at games tables with 4 students at each table.

I need game tables and Uno cards to help my students learn how to play and share with other students during SEL Class.
