My Students

Our school is a true neighborhood school! Most of our students walk to and from school each day. Our school feels like a huge family helping each other through the challenges that we face.

The majority of students in the school are eligible for free or reduced-priced meals.

We are in need of supplies to enrich their educational experience and nourish their enthusiasm for learning. Our 4th grade class is full of students that will be truly appreciative of your generosity.

My Project

After years of high use, our whiteboard no longer erases. Our students spend a lot of time using the interactive software which is projected on the whiteboard. Having a whiteboard that doesn't erase makes it difficult to see the images that are projected and makes it difficult for students to do their best work. We also often project media clips on to the whiteboard. It's nearly impossible to see the images on a board that won't erase.

A new whiteboard will ensure that all students are able to access the information in every lesson.

We promise that we'll treat this new whiteboard with care to ensure that it lasts for years to come.
