My Project

I love my students because they bring so much resilience, culture, and curiosity into the classroom. Many of them are navigating not only their education but also new languages and unfamiliar experiences, which can sometimes feel overwhelming. Despite these challenges, they show up every day eager to learn, connect, and grow.

The noise-canceling headphones will provide a much-needed tool for students who need a quiet space to focus, helping them regulate their emotions and concentrate on their learning without being overstimulated by background noise.

This will be especially helpful for students adjusting to multiple languages and new environments.

The cleaning supplies will ensure that my students have a safe, hygienic space to learn and thrive. Since I’m the only one maintaining the cleanliness of our classroom, having the right supplies will help me create a welcoming and healthy environment where students can focus on their education without worry.
