My Project

I will be starting my 14th year teaching at a new school. Leaving my old school was a difficult decision but with lots of praying my decision was made. My new chapter in my life will be helping students of all cultures. I love my students as if they were my own children.

The supplies I have requested will give my students the same opportunities as other children.

We are requesting snacks, notebooks and more. I would appreciate anything you can do for us. My goal for the school year is for all my students walk out my classroom door feeling loved and successful.
