My Project

My students have shown significant progress and growth this past year. When provided with the right support based on their individual needs, my students have shown that they can overcome their obstacles and be successful at any task they come across.

Help me give my students incentives, activities that exercise their minds, calculators, and other resources to support their learning.

I want to reward students who demonstrate great citizenship, provide fun learning opportunities for students to engage with, as well as individual folders to keep track of their work, and refill our bean bag chairs. My students also need access to better calculators for our math class.
