My Students

My students are the greatest! They all come from minority culture groups and are working hard to change both their own and their families' lives. They have aspirations to do great things! Many plan to go to college and will be the first ones in their families to do so. The majority have jobs and/or play sports and still maintain good grades and are excellent students!! I am so proud of them.

My Project

These materials will make a difference because they students can use them in class and at home. They will be able to write in them to take notes and answer questions in the books so they can have a better understanding about why their answers were right or wrong. My school does not have AP textbooks so these will be the only ones they have! We have been struggling as a class because they do not have access to any materials outside of the classroom. Please help them out! Thank you in advance!
