My classroom is a safe haven for many of my students. I teach in a very diverse area, and my students come from all walks of life. Sometimes coming to school is the one thing they look forward to and can count on for warmth, food, and a friendly environment. Regardless of their hardships, my kids come to school eager to learn and grow. We set and reach goals constantly, and they are always aiming to succeed. My goal is to provide my students with the classroom environment that they deserve; one that can meet their needs and will allow them to grow and be all that they are meant to be. I am raising doctors, lawyers, teachers, nurses, politicians. I am raising plumbers and electricians, mechanics and maybe even a future president. Your help allows me to help them in a way that I never imagined I could. Thank you to all past, present, and future donors, for helping me teach my kids.
