My Students

My high-achieving, college-bound students are inquisitive, reflective, and artistic. They are hungry to learn in an environment that promotes equity, curiosity, and play. My school is a unique public school experience, as our campus is home to grades 4-12. Our faculty is committed to its students and their success on a campus that is known for its true sense of community and life-long relationships.

My challenge is to encourage the development of the interior lives of young people through writing and literature.

One way to do this is by enriching that curriculum with skills and experiences that expose how literature is related to art, science, philosophy, theater, technology, and their own lives.

My Project

Virtual learning has been a challenge for all of us. My students need as much interactive stimulation as possible to give them the motivation to stay focused and engaged in lessons. This iPad will allow me greater mobility to create and execute lessons that let students move around with me and follow instructions. I would like to purchase this item to make it easy to move around and show them things outside my office, without having to move my desktop computer. Thank you all so much for your support!
