My Project

My students are an integral part of my everyday life. I am a special education teacher so I have the opportunity to have my students for multiple years. This helps us get to know each other on a more intimate level. They are a bunch of kids that come from diverse backgrounds outside of school, but when they enter the school building we are FAMILY!

Please help me to provide my students with a variety of snacks like cookies, cheez-its, and cheddar cheese goldfish.

Many of my students come to school hungry which makes it hard for them to concentrate on their schoolwork. Being able to help my students when they are hungry will allow them to focus on their academic assignments. No child should be expected to learn when they are hungry. Full bellies make for positive thinkers and learners
