My Students

I teach 3rd and 4th grade special education in Norfolk, VA.

My students live in an urban area and typically come from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

My students work hard to overcome obstacles every day, but they push through and always persevere. I am so proud of their hard work and the progress they make.

My Project

WOW! We have been gifted so many amazing supplies through the helps of Donor's Choose and some amazing supporters. We now need bins, caddies, and other storage containers to keep all of our things organized.

An organized classroom helps promote learning!

These items will help keep everything in order and give all of our new supplies a home. Being organized will give my students the opportunity to know where all of our supplies are kept so they can quickly be accessed. It will also help me increase productivity because I will know exactly where all of my supplies are and what I have.
