My Students
Our classroom is a full-day tuition-free preschool. The children in my classroom are high-risk students who come from low-income families. My school is a Title I school and every child receives a free lunch. I am passionate about working with young children and with your support, we can ensure that my students have the learning resources needed to reach their educational goals.
Would you consider being our classroom hero?
My students have a wide range of needs in the areas of social-emotional skills, communication, and academics. Despite what obstacles and hardships the children face outside of school, they come to the classroom every day ready to learn. My students inspire me to be the best teacher that I can be. I will continue to advocate for my students in order to ensure that they receive a quality education.
My Project
After returning from Thanksgiving Break, I had a conversation with a student that I will never forget. I asked if he had a good break. He said, "Well yes, but I didn't get any turkey." His response broke my heart that he missed out on having a Thanksgiving Day meal. Following the conversation, I began to think about what I could do to help ensure students are able to make better memories.
I am requesting a Christmas gift for each of my students so they will not have the experience that my one student had over Thanksgiving break.
When the student comes back from Christmas break, I want him to be happy and have opened the Christmas gift that he receives from me. My students have been thru so much. I cannot wait to see them smile.
