My Project

I teach at the same elementary school I went to as a child. We rarely had visitors and I see my students being treated the same way. My school is located in between three rough neighborhoods. I want to give my students the world because they are great kids and when I look at my students I see myself. Some days they are hungry and I sometimes don't have the funds to feed everybody, so donors can help me do that.

My School doesn't have a lot of funding so I have to pull together what I can for my students to be successful.

We don't have a lot of funding, so the Meta Quest Virtual Reality Headset can be used to take them on field trips or they can add science games that have problem-solving skills. if nobody else will help my students I have to. I am going to take them all over just to see the smiles on their faces.
