My Project

I took over my class at the beginning of December 2022 and it has been one of the best teaching experiences of my career! My 2nd-grade students are beyond exceptional! They are kind and work hard! I love them dearly! Since we are at a charter school, the classroom needs are up to the teachers. A lot of our parents need help with everyday needs. If I had the money to supply our classroom with paper, paper towels, lapboard erasers, and the other supplies we use constantly, I would do it right away.

Please help our class with supplies.

The students come from various socioeconomic backgrounds but the one thing that they share is the desire to learn! They are driven to be great!
