My Students

Our school provides a rigorous college-preparatory education that equips and empowers students for success in college and in life. We welcome all students, including those living with emotional, physical, or other structural disadvantaging factors, such as gender, race, or poverty. We opened in 2009 with our first 6th-grade class and graduated our first 12th-grade class in 2016. In 2016, we expanded our school community to include 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grades. This year we grew to include kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grades!

Our first grade class is struggling due to the Covid-19 pandemic and we need your help.

My Project

I am ordering these supplies for my First grade students to support their learning by helping them to organize. Being organized makes life easier. I want to help my students start this process at a very young age, so they can blossom and flourish in their future endeavors.

Organization plays a vital role in a child's pathway to success in college, and it will be crucial to success in their chosen career field too.

My school is a college preparatory charter school. It is part of our mission to fulfill the college promise. Thank you for helping me provide the tools to implement success in my classroom.
