My Students

My students are my life! For me, making their lives better and more enriched is my passion! We live in the urban city of Charlotte, and I have students of every kind. The diversity is amazing. We have students of all races, religions, and socioeconomic statuses.

My students are scholars!

Often, I get visitors observing my class, and they see a variety of things happening such as me standing on desks, singing, dancing, experiments, stations, collaborative group work, or students teaching other students. My students have a thirst for knowledge, and they always strive to fly higher than the rest! We are Ravens!

My Project

Our middle school STEM club has rockets we just need the engines to make them go! We have been teaching the kids about drag, forces of motion, and working on a paper air plane project to apply what they have learned.

We are now ready to BLAST OFF to the next step by launching rockets.

We want the kids to have an experience they never had before! We want to show them a larger than life application of the things they have learned over the past 2 months.

We would really appreciate you help in inspiring some amazing kids!

Thank you
