My Students

My students are high school students primarily from the Bronx, a diverse population of students.

My students have varying levels of abilities when it comes to academics but they all have something at which they excel.

My school encourages the development of the arts and students find a place here where they are able to express themselves creatively.

Our school is located in an area defined as a low socioeconomic neighborhood and many times students have not been given the same opportunities or exposure as their peers in other neighborhoods. Even with that disadvantage, however, my students are eager and ready to learn and prove themselves as valuable parts of their community.

My Project

Exploring Computer Science (ECS) is designed to introduce students to the breadth of the field of computer science through an exploration of engaging and accessible topics.

We are requesting alligator clip test leads and AstroAI Digital Multimeter with Ohm Volt Amp, Diode Voltage Tester Meter and more.

As students delve into the e-textiles unit they will understand how the electronic elements are powered, they will learn how to code these electrical circuits and create their own projects.

Exploring Computer Science teaches the creative, collaborative, interdisciplinary, and problem solving nature of computing with instructional materials that feature an inquiry-based approach to learning and teaching.

The E-Textiles unit will allow students to step outside of the box and create projects such as electronic cards, light up wristbands and Human sensors.
