My Project

My scholars are compassionate, caring, and resilient learners. They face challenges, like struggles with literacy, but always come to school ready to take on any obstacles that stand in their way. A great education is part of the foundation of life success that I encourage my students to build upon.

The funding of this project will make a huge difference in my students' learning and focus.

There are two separate reasons for funding this project: supplies and motivation.

A well-stocked classroom fosters a conducive learning environment, promotes engagement, and empowers students with the necessary resources to explore, create, and excel in their academic journey. Items like puzzles, tissues, pencils, pens, binders, and more will help students with the tools to empower them on their educational journey.

Incentives in class serve as powerful motivators, encouraging active participation, fostering a positive learning atmosphere, and rewarding students for their efforts, ultimately enhancing overall academic performance. Candy and other rewards help to foster a learning environment that is warm and caring.
