My Students

Have you ever had 18 people give everything they have to give, day in and day out? Have you felt the unconditional love 18 students give towards their teacher and peers and have a love of learning and want to academically do their best each and every day?

Welcome to my amazing classroom, located in the inner city of Buffalo.

We are part of Buffalo Public Schools and our school has a large percentage of students from low-income homes. We have the second-largest percentage of English as a new language learner in the district. As their teacher, I need to go above and beyond to give all my students hands-on, engaging, exciting resources so they can academically strive!

DonorsChoose helps make academics easier with educational materials that will give my students more resources for learning. I am thankful for this program, and the smiles it will give my students daily!

My Project

Please help me keep a clean and safe learning environment for my Pre-K students. My students need these supplies to help them keep safe from germs and viruses. When the students know they are well kept, they feel empowered to be their best self!

We are trying our best to stay safe and healthy this year and this donation of refills for our hand soap at the sink and refills of hand sanitizer for our hand sanitizing station would be a blessing!

I also have our 18 students becoming independent while eating breakfast and lunch in our classroom. I am requesting a broom and dustpan for easy clean up so we can quickly clean and continue learning! Thank you for your consideration to help support my classroom this year!
