My Project

Students are able to put the skills they are developing in our classroom to real-world tasks. By helping us to complete this project, you will not only be helping one classroom, but an entire grade-level of classrooms.

Our students are compassionate, empathetic, hardworking, and full of joy.

With their big hearts, brains and work ethic, my students are ready, anxious and willing to become successful in school. Our students want to become more and are ready to embrace my idea of "fearless learning." I want to push our students' thinking to new levels, with new experiences and adventures, as well as support their need to move when they're working. With your help and your donations, we can work together to accomplish this goal for my students and my classroom.

This specific project will benefit the entirety of our 4th grade program, this year, and for years to come.

They are all kids who want to learn and grow in new and interesting ways. This project will help them to achieve something unique and different in an effort to grow their brain.
