My school serves 500 children in pre-kindergarten 3/4-5th grade in New York City. The majority of our students reside in a nearby public housing development. We also have students from families living in homeless shelters, a high percentage of students that are new to the country (ENL) and students that receive special education services. All of our students receive free lunch. This year, I get to share yoga, health and wellness with all children, 3k- fifth! I also teach STEM, reading and theater. Although my students face many challenges, they show up and give it their best daily. It is my wish to level the playing field to give my kids a chance at a better education. I've seen former students go on to do amazing things! Any donation large or small will be greatly appreciated and used to enhance the educational lives of my awesome scholars. :)
