My Students

"Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow." My students are young and inquisitive. They love to learn and are always trying their best!

TK students are experiencing elementary school for the first time.

The classroom carpet is an essential part of the classroom. This is the place where they learn to sit, stay focused and being to learn how to concentrate when the teacher is talking. It is the heart of the classroom.

My Project

My students attend a school where Title 1 funding is not available so we as teachers must supplement by finding ways to help them get the required materials. Anyone who has ever been in a classroom knows that the class carpet is the meeting spot for any young class. It's where the kids feel safe, share their feelings, and learn new and exciting ideas.

Your donation to a new classroom carpet will be extremely beneficial to my classroom.

I can just imagine the looks on the kids faces when they find out they have a new clean space to learn in.
