My Students

My students are a mix of first and second generation immigrants from Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Mexico. Some come from stable homes with two parents, but many have recently arrived from detention camps and are being fostered by guardians.

Many of our students and their families fled the violence in their home countries only to experience the poverty, crime, and violence of the Pico Union area of Los Angeles, one of the most densely populated neighborhoods in the nation.

Our students are socio-economically disadvantaged and receive free breakfast and lunch.

My students are bright, fun, creative, and determined to succeed! They always tell me that family is the most important aspect of their lives. They deserve to rise out of poverty in their new environment and make their parents proud.

My Project

I would love for my art students to share the amazing pieces made in our classroom with the whole school community! Right now, so much of their work is hidden away in portfolio drawers in the classroom. I envision my students experiencing the work of art gallery and museum educators and curators. Students would create changing art exhibitions throughout the school year, making wall labels of artists' statements, then frame and hang their artwork around the school. I know they would feel so proud to share their creativity with fellow students, staff, and their families!
