My Project

This project is from my heart! I have students who work hard to complete assignments in the computer science/STEM lab. They go above and beyond every day to make me proud! I just want to give them the world because they want to please me in the classroom.

Because I brag on them so much, they asked for a fun day in March.

They only want a day to fly kites, use fidget spinners in the lab, and have snacks while watching a movie. These are simple things to make my students happy! This project is all about rewarding them for their hard work in my class. Yes, they give me 110% every day!
