My Students

Our school is as special as our students. We are ninety percent economically disadvantaged. Our school population is a around one hundred and twenty students, Pre K thru twelve.

Our students deserve much more than their parents can afford.

They work hard to learn and are a joy to work with. The girls out number the boys and love to tell them what to do. The boys are learning to be gentlemen and respect the girls.

Our students come from several towns. They are willing to ride the bus to come to our school. Some ride over an hour a day to get here.

My Project

Kindergarten students work hard in the morning, on learning all the skills we need in order to read and write words. The Pre K students learn about letters and retelling stories. They learn how to write their names. They work cooperatively in centers before they go to lunch and fill their stomachs.

Now, it is time to rest and refuel with rest time.

We turn out the lights and let them watch a video or just listen to music of around thirty-five minutes for kindergarten and fifty minutes for Pre K. Then kindergarten goes to PE.

Last, we have about an hour for math. They can all think better when rested. Most of our students can't afford a nap mat, even the cheapest one. This way with these cots, no one is left out or has to rest on the cold floor.
