My Project

My students struggle to get the materials they need in order to have a successful high school year. Whether financial constraints, time constraints, or family responsibilities are the root cause, my high school students are often underserved when it comes to having what they need to succeed.

Your donation can help supply a student in need to reach their potential in math class this year!

They will get a graphing notebook, and I will get items in the classroom to help the environment feel safe, supportive, and interactive. These materials will help them work in groups, make their learning visible, and leave with a positive sentiment about mathematics!

Help me show every student…”Yes, YOU are a math person!”
