Our school serves students in grades K-8 and provides rigorous academics, fantastic teachers and a safe learning environment. Our goal is to prepare our students for success in high school and college. Our school has a very diverse population with 100% receiving free breakfast and lunch in a total population of about 400 students.
We are an African Immersion school that focuses on the life and accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
My students are so lovable and deserve the best learning opportunities I can give them.
My Project
My scholars and I need a CD player and a wide variety of books with CDs. In my PreK classroom at the moment we don't have a listening center at all. This CD player and selection of books will help us start a classroom listening center.
In PreK it is so important for my scholars to hear books being read to them everyday.
Now all the scholars in my classroom will get to select a book of their choice to listen to during literacy stations and during free choice time. It is so important to give young learners different opportunities to explore learning.
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
