My Students

I am always amazed at the perseverance of my students and how they are always eager to learn new things. I often watch how they start off not speaking English and then blossom into becoming proficient even though our school is located in an underserved neighborhood. It makes me grateful!

My Project

During the winter months student have to wash their frequently, I want to help students stay safe and stay in school especially now that they are more susceptible to germs and viruses. Help me keep give students the opportunity to stay germ free and healthy. The health and wellness of students is important for keeping them in school. Teaching students about preventing germs and staying healthy is vital to their learning. Students can develop proper hygiene skills to help them stay safe and healthy and prevent frequent absence school. Thanks!
