My Students
Community is an extremely important part of my students' lives. They learn from an early age about community involvement, respect, and dedication. This community here is considered family. Half of the student population is from low income households. The community and students support one another giving as much opportunity as possible.
Most of the community's families have lived here for generations.
They want to see their students succeed and come back to continue helping the next generation. It is amazing to see how the students are dedicated and enthusiastic about supporting one another. They encourage each other to be their own person and work hard to reach their goals.
My Project
All of my students want to be successful and try to support one another. I teach 7-12 science focusing on learning skills that will help students succeed in whatever path they choose after high school. Movement helps students focus, engage, and problem solve. Every student has a niche that helps them be successful in competing tasks. It could be chewing gum, taping a foot, clicking a pen, etc.
Flexible seating wobble chairs will give a student an option to move during class without disruption to other students.
My classroom has lab tables and learning tables. Switching chairs to move while working will be a great option for many of my students allowing me to have a learning environment adaptable for all learners.
More than three‑quarters of 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
