My Students

Aloha,

I have taught in India, and in a few states in the United States since 1993.

All over the world, children are the same, simply beautiful, kind, loving, and eager to learn. It is our duty and responsibility to prepare them for the future, to make them responsible citizens of the world, and to teach them to take care of our planet.

Our students come from hard working class families. The parents are very committed and dedicated. They give and do their best for their children. Unfortunately, due to the present situation with loss of jobs and income, it is extremely tough for parents to support all their children's needs.

Teachers are second parents to the students. We want to do the best and give our best too, and support our school children in every way we can.

Mahalo for your support.

My Project

Arts and crafts are fun and crucial activities for kids. Unfortunately, parents do not have the money to spend on arts and crafts especially during these tough times.

By introducing arts and crafts to the students and involving them in such activities at school, we will invest in building students' cognitive, physical, and social development.

Arts and crafts also help instill a sense of achievement and pride in children, boosting their confidence and academic performance. Above all these are activities filled with lots of fun and excitement for children.

Thank you.

Ms. Andrade
Grades PreK-2
