My Students

Where do I begin.....my students at my school are awesome! These students come to school each and every day ready to rock and roll with their education! They may have struggles but they try their hardest to fight these struggles to become better students.

My school is located in a neighborhood that faces many difficulties on a daily basis.It is a poverty stricken neighborhood.

My school is a Title 1 school and every student receives free lunches daily. Even though the neighborhood isn't the best for these students and their families, they still make it to school each day. The school is most students safe place where they can be themselves and enjoy learning.

My Project

When students come in at the beginning of the school year, we want them to be ready to start. Although their parents send them in with some supplies, it always helps to have supplies in the class. If the classroom is packed with everything they need to learn then my students will have one less thing to worry about.

Donations for the project will help my students immensely.

These supplies are crucial to their learning. The headphones will be used for their new math programs on the computers. Our students will gain access to online programs that will help them grow but the headphones are needed. The other supplies I am asking for such as paper, pencils, crayons, sharpener, etc. will all be used daily in our classroom in all subjects.
