My Students

It is my goal to reach the learning needs of all of my students. I have students from a variety of backgrounds and every one of them has a specific need that can be met in the classroom.

As a teacher, I want the best for my students and as a community, you should want the best students out of my school.

Donating to projects like mine will help ensure that students are prepared and focused on a future that will impact their life and yours.

My Project

The Wacom tablet will enhance learning in the classroom by speeding up the animation process and allowing enhanced artistic creativity. Students will not only learn the process and the software but will get to experience animation with the use of the tablet.

I want my students to be able to learn on the same equipment they will see in the workplace.

Giving students the right equipment today will help them prepare for their future. Plus it is just cool and the students will have a blast. Education should be fun!
