My Project
I love that my students have a natural investigative spirit! They are always “thinking outside the box”. They are highly intelligent, and I know that a bright future awaits them.
Some of them have expressed an interest in investigative reporting, and to also become content creators for social media.
A few have ventured into recording their own news show. I teach a very talented and innovative group of students. Most of them are in need of resources such as school supplies and donations to reach their full potential. I have a deep love for my students, and have exhausted most of my funds supporting their needs.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
