My Project

We seriously have some of the best students in our small-town middle school.

My students are always ready to try something new and because of that, I want to be a better teacher every day.

I want to grow with them!

Our school includes over sixty percent free or reduced-price lunch recipients. Together our community, parents, and staff work to get us everything we need. I am so grateful to have wonderful people like you also partnering with us to help get our students everything they so deserve.

I am teaching four sections of STEM classes at four different grade levels in our middle school. My classes are STEM, Robotics, Digital Applications, and Pre-engineering design. I am loving all the unique learning that is happening.

My 5th grade STEM class and 6th grade Robotics classes have already started coding, working with robots, designing and begun working with many other digital and hands-on STEM tools. Design is a universal language where students can be as creative as they would like.

Currently we have six Obobots in our STEM classroom and I would like to have a few more so our work groups can be smaller. These robots are great introduction to our Spike Essential robots.

Coding and computer science will encourage many students to think about their future careers in STEM! Thank you for investing in my classroom and my students!
