My Students

Our children are our future! Our children come to school eager to learn, and I have high expectations of what they can accomplish. One hundred percent of our students qualify for free breakfast and lunch. In spite of the many disadvantages and hardships they face, they try their best to succeed. Although many of our students read below their grade level, they enjoy coming to school and learning new things every day. My scholars inspire me to help them become the best they can be!

My students are intelligent and have a strong desire to be successful.

Unfortunately, the educational system has failed many of them for a long time. Most of my students do not have access to the Internet or computers at home.

My Project

Giving my students with asthma clean air to breathe is a top priority. My students need to have an air purifier that will ensure they stay healthy during class. This air purifier will ensure that the whole classroom has clean air.

This air purifier will make a difference in our learning because this will eliminate most allergens and pollutants in the air.

We simply want to breathe clean, fresh air while learning. I believe this air purifier will keep us healthier so that we are ready to learn. We will change out the filters as needed.

This air purifier will also help with students who have allergies. I want my students to feel safe in their classroom, and I think this air purifier will be a great step towards achieving just that. I know they will appreciate having nice, clean air in their classroom!
