My Students

I teach high needs students in a low income community. Although my students have the odds stacked against them, they always impress me with their willingness to learn. They come into the art room every week full of questions and energy about the projects we’ll be working on.

Through art, I am able to show them that even though they may not perform well in other subjects, that doesn’t mean they aren’t worthy.

Art provides an escape from the mundane coursework that they are used to everyday. It also has been proven to increase performance in other subject areas as well.

My Project

Art in schools are not often viewed as a necessity, so art teachers tend to get the short end of the stick when it comes to funding. That is why it is necessary to reach out to donors outside of the school system for assistance. The necessary resources such as: paint,paper,pencils,etc will be used to create different projects throughout the school year.

By donating to our classroom, you will help create a brighter future for young minds.

I do not want their creativity to be limited because the necessary supplies are not available. Typically, parents would be asked to purchase items themselves, but most of the time it is not possible due to low income.
