My Students

Our early childhood school is now in its 12th year serving the community. In our PreK class, that means over 180 students have come and gone from this classroom. Along with that, many other students have called our room home for enrichment classes, after-school programs, and summer camp.

Families send their precious children to our class every day, for us to help them take those first steps towards accomplishing great feats.

Children make this room their home for however long they stay and miss it dearly when they move on. It's something we take pride in, and we hope to continue doing what we love to do and that nurtures their love of learning.

I've been teaching, at my first and current school, for seven years. No matter who enters through that door, they are part of our school family. I hope to provide them with the absolute best education we can offer.

My Project

The beginning of the year is approaching and it's super exciting. We hope to duplicate the success of last year and to do so, we want to show our families that we care about their children as if they are our own. We want to show we are dedicated in their education and establish trust.

I am requesting materials to equip our classroom and the homes of our students.

Books to add to their at-home library or even be the very first, and games to encourage families to spend time together. We always tell our parents to read and spend time with their children. With these materials to send home, it will show our families we mean what we say.

The other materials will add to our inquiry studies in the classroom and help develop their STEM thinking. All of these items will help us kick off the new school year and push us towards the direction of having another successful year in pre-K!
