My Project

This books and workbooks provides me a varied toolkit to work in small groups and larger groups to meet the needs of our amazing teens. They come to school with varied barriers to education and many of them stem from poor mental health and coping skills. Living in poverty and have little structure or support at home or living in extreme violence can be detrimental to them receiving an education. Whatever my role can be in their live, I want to be set to provide them the best I can.

Ms. McAllister Horace Furness High School Grades 9-12
