My Students

If you want to see terrific kids, help fund our project, and see the pictures of my class. These children are so fun-loving and full of life. Each day, not only are they learning, but I am also learning new things from them.

Many of these children come from low-income homes.

It is very hard for them to get supplies and the items they need to help them in life. They deserve to have the very best. They attend a wonderful school; however, like many schools, money has become an issue.

My Project

Everyday my children rest on mats in the classroom. Many of the children do not bring a rest blanket. They see the other children with blankets and get upset because they don’t have one. No child should ever lay down without a comfortable blanket. If we get funded, the children will be able to pick there own blanket for rest time. If they are comfortable they will be able to rest. Children work better when they are well rested. Thank you for taking the time to read our classes proposal.
