My Project

My students are incredibly creative, thoughtful, and full of curiosity. Each day, they come to school eager to explore new ideas and take brave steps towards personal and academic growth. Their enthusiasm and determination truly inspire me!

One of the key moments in our classroom is when we gather on the classroom rug.

This time not only helps us connect as a classroom family but also fosters essential academic and social-emotional skills.

Currently, our rug seats 20 students, but with 24 students in our class, it’s become clear that we need a larger rug to ensure everyone has their own space. A new, appropriately sized rug will provide a clean, organized spot where students can establish boundaries, engage in daily routines, and develop a strong sense of community. More importantly, it will create a comfortable and supportive environment where every student feels valued and important.
