My Students

The obstacles my students face daily is mind boggling. From major learning gaps to significant language barriers, they amaze me with their willingness to continue. As their teacher, it is my responsibility to help them overcome these challenges in any way possible.

What we learn today becomes part of who we are tomorrow.

Creating life-long learners is critical to the future.

With your generous donation, you will help my students improve their knowledge and understanding of the world around them.

My Project

Our school is blessed with an amazing staff who will go above and beyond to help our students. However, sometimes money runs low and we cannot personally afford to give our students all that they deserve when it comes to learning. Something as little as a working pair of headphones can make all the difference in the world! Our reading intervention program is based in sound, as it breaks down the English language for our student on their level.

Our students work hard every day to increase their language skills and improve their reading comprehension.

Please help us in giving them the proper tools needed to be successful.
