My Students

I work in a Title One School located in New York. Our population consists of minorities and low income families. Most come to school without the necessary materials to be successful and empowered learners. All students are eager to learn new and interesting things. Our goal is to prepare students for upper grades and become college ready individuals.

Our Elementary School serves students in grades K-5 and provides rigorous academics, a safe learning environment and without question, an amazing staff.

Due to these great efforts, our school is one of the top-performing schools in our district. We continue to thrive daily and push our students to their fullest potential.

My Project

My Second Grade students need to start preparing for Third Grade and the NY State Exams. These exams can be extremely stressful and beginning preparation in Second Grade can help relieve some of the stress. We want to teach our kids correct grammar to allow them to be successful. Our school is unable to fund these books so we are asking for your help. Help our students thrive. Our teacher's choice money was limited and needed to go to much needed supplies. We thank you in advance for your support.

Our next generation needs to learn proper English and Grammar.
