My Students

All of my wonderful students benefit from additional support to achieve their learning goals and use technology to both access the curriculum and track individual progress. Our urban school community is amazing and we all work hard to foster a supportive learning environment for our students.

Given the financial constraints that our district faces, we are always looking for ways to ensure our students receive the access to the support materials and technology they need and deserve.

We believe our students deserve to have the same opportunities that those in more financially fortunate school districts have. It's our goal to do all that we can to provide this for them.

My Project

My students learn best when they are well fed and not worrying about their next meal, comfortably clothed in clothes that fit well, and nice and clean! These are all things that can be an area of concern for my students, and I want to do all that I can to alleviate this stress. All of these essential items will help support my students in their daily life.

Having healthy snacks each day will provide my students with a full belly and fueled mind.

Having life essentials such as tooth brushes, body soap, and sanitizer will give them the confidence to present themselves in the best way possible each day. Having clothing readily available for when accidents happen and/or bodies are changing will be the solution for some challenging situations.
