My Project

Walk into our kindergarten classroom in Crown Heights Brooklyn and you will find a group of determined, engaged, and joyful students committed to growing and achieving against all obstacles!

What I love best about my students is that they learn at any early age to live and learn with DRIVE (determination, respect, integrity, voice, and engagement).

They seek out opportunities to demonstrate these values each and every day.

Materials like crayons and markers will remove the barriers that have been erected as a result of the economic impact of the pandemic. We want our students to shine and thrive in the next grades and all the grades that are to come....including college!!!
