In my position, I proudly support over 650 PreK-5 students in discovering themselves through social-emotional wellness. My students represent a wide variety of socioeconomic levels, learning styles, and cultural backgrounds, 100% of whom come from low-income families. A large part of this population is dealing with the aftereffects of trauma, abuse, or poverty. I am here to support all students and they come to me for support with everyday life and guidance. Many of my students lack a strong support system at home, therefore, they need all of the resources they can get when they are in school. The students experience so much negativity from the outside world on a daily basis. We are her to support, encourage and uplift. We are ready for the 2nd half and want to celebrate with balloons and snacks of chips, animal crackers, Takis, and more!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
