My Students

The elementary school that I work at is such a special place! Our students come to school each day ready to take on another day of learning. I am proud to say that every staff member at my school strives to provide the best place to learn for our students.

My goal is to create a school and classroom environment that is inviting, engaging, meaningful and full of passion!

My classroom is a safe place where learning is fun but adds meaning to their lives.

My students are the most enthusiastic group of students I have had yet. Each and every one of them brings something unique to our classroom. Thanks to your donations, I will continue to be able to do whatever I can to help my students succeed and move on to be successful members of society!

My Project

At Villa Heights, we have great students and amazing families. As a teacher in a Title 1 school, I often encounter students who struggle in several areas of reading, math and science, and they often do not have the materials at home to practice these skills. My students work hard every day in school and at home on their homework. This project would make it possible for me to provide additional resources for at home practice and extension.

Parents ask frequently what they can do at home to help support their students.

These family engagement packs and STEM kits will give parents the materials and instructions they need to give their students more academic practice at home. Thank you in advance for your donations!
