My Project

My 8th graders always hold a special place in my heart. They are still babies but they are growing up and getting ready for High School. I would love to provide a classroom that suits their individual needs by providing comfortable seating that helps them enjoy reading in the classroom, supplies so there is no worry about what they need in order to perform daily tasks and a clean space that makes them excited to learn.

My students often sit in all areas of the room to read and write.

This project being funded will allow for them to find spaces in the room to read and discuss books/texts with their classmates.
