My Students

We are a diverse community of K-12 learners at 12 sites across Brooklyn. Presently, our school serves over 563 students classified with a range of social, emotional and cognitive challenges including, but not limited to: autism spectrum disorders, intellectual and cognitive disabilities and emotional disturbances.

Each student comes to us with unique and often severe challenges that have negatively impacted their ability to succeed in a general education setting.

Just under 90% of our students are Title I eligible, meaning that they are living at or below the poverty line.

My Project

Our students are doing their best to adapt to new models of instruction and they are facing a rapidly evolving world of work and education.

The textbooks and resources that I have requested will allow me to incorporate more immediately relevant concepts into our computer science education, such as cyber-security via penetration testing, mathematical applications in circuitry, architecture, and the design of automated systems, and through the use of math and computer science concepts to illustrate common problem solving approaches.

My students will benefit from these resources by having the opportunity to explore advanced real-world applications of concepts that can be very dry and uninteresting without the benefit of practical application.
