My Project

This is my 17th year teaching at a Title I school. I love my students and want to see them succeed in school and in life.

I want to give my students Valentine's Day gifts to let them know how much I love having them in my class, but I also want them to be able to give valentines to children at our local children's hospital.

Valentine's Day is such a special day for young students. You can feel the joy and excitement when students get to pass out valentines to their classmates. I know it has to be difficult for students to miss out on those special days when they're in the hospital.

Because we have a children's hospital close by, I would love for my students to experience the joy of giving by creating their own special gift for a child at the hospital.

I want my students to know how much they are loved and valued, and I want them to be able to spread the love on this special day too.
