My Students

Ms. Choi's, Ms. Victor's, and Ms. Migone's students are READY for another wonderful year at our school! Our students' readiness and love for learning is what drives us. They are creative, inquisitive, and hardworking. Whether they are working independently, in partnerships, small groups, or with the entire class, our students love overcoming challenges together. They not only push themselves when it comes to tasks, but love helping their peers to push themselves as well.

To foster our class communities, we strive to create and maintain only the best learning environments for our students.

Our goal as their teachers is to teach our students skills to thrive in and out of the classrooms.

My Project

Our second grade, fifth grade, and self-contained classrooms are in need of a portable air conditioning unit to cool down the room. In the hotter months, it can be very difficult to work in a room with high temperatures, which is not the comfortable learning environment we want for our students.

We ask you to please help us create an environment YOU would want to work in for OUR students!

Our students need a setting that allows them to move around freely and be productive without feeling overheated and fatigued. With a cool room, our students can focus on the task at hand to work towards growth and success.

We do not want ANYTHING, not even the heat, to deter our students from achieving their goals!
