My kindergarten students are a group of creative and energetic children who come to school so excited to learn each day. We are a Title 1 school with over half of our population receiving free or reduced meals. The reality is that many of my students come to kindergarten as their first school experience and they need additional supports for success. With your help, I can provide the experiences necessary for these children to exceed expectations. Kindergarten may be their first school experience, and I hope to make it their best!
