My Project

My students are a special group of students. They chose to show up and learn daily, despite their environment. For this, I try my best to give every student the supplies he or she needs to be successful in my class. My students are actively adjusting to 8th grade math. They are asking questions and gradually shifting their focus on being more confident in their work. As we utilize test taking strategies to prepare them for their benchmark exam, we are in need of highlighters and pencils. We are currently out of these supplies.

To keep my students momentum towards learning going, these items are needed for my classroom.

Please donate to my class and continue to mold the future leaders of America.
