My Students

We are a highly impacted public elementary school in Utah. Our students come from all over the globe. Several of our students speak more than one language. They love learning and enjoy school. Despite the challenges they face, they work hard and always try their best. They need engaging activities to help them focus on their education. They are students who long to reach lofty goals in life, and can with your help. It takes a village to raise them.

My Project

Headphones will help support student technology use at school and at home in case we have to go to remote learning again. Our students use headphones for literacy learning, math learning, and English Language learning. They are also necessary for all standardized tests. My project will benefit the whole student body because I am an instructional coach that works with all teachers in grades kindergarten through fifth grade. It is nice to see Utah allowing teachers to fund the projects for the supplies they need. We are so excited to use our headphones!
