My Students

Teaching in a low-income community school in Harlem has many challenges, both to our students and our school. However, as their teacher I strive to give my students a meaningful and engaging academic experience.

My students are curious problem solvers who love a challenge in the classroom.

My students come from very diverse challenging backgrounds. However, they still strive to impress not only myself, but also, each other with the gains they take away each day. It is my daily goal to motivate my students and prepare them to have the best possible academic experience in my classroom.

My Project

My students need a classroom library that is diverse and engaging. Currently our books are very minimal and our leveled library does not have enough titles to engage students with reading. Many of my students are not reading up to grade level standards. Therefore, I am trying to build my classroom library to be one that sparks my student's love for reading.

I know my students can grow to be great readers once they discover, and have access to, the great world of books.

Your generous donation will build our library to be one that is diverse in titles, characters, and storylines. It will provide my students with access to books which they will want to read and will also help them to hopefully meet their reading targets.
