Our school is on the edge of Grandview Missouri. We are a low income, high poverty school. Most of my students have experienced more in their 9 years than most have in their lifetime. These kids are full of love and high hopes; and for most of them, education is one of the only ways to a better life. My goal is to provide my students with a safe and nurturing environment for them to learn and grow. Each one of them has different strengths and weaknesses, but all of them are more than willing to learn and be loved. I want to find a way to teach to my students and help them to reach their potential.
