My Project

This will be my first year of teaching and my students deserve proper resources to learn. My mission is to provide an equitable learning experience for my students in my English language arts classroom!

Many of my students may not be able to bring their own supplies for school that are needed to have for lessons.

My goal is to be able to provide these materials for students so that parents and students do not have to worry or feel inadequate about not having what is needed.

Materials such as the binders and notebook paper act as a way for parent communication. Not all parents have access to technology or can provide materials for their child. Donations like these directly help parent community and strengthening our community.
