My Students

My students walk into the classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. My students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I make sure to provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences. Everyday is an adventure with many hidden treasures to discover. I feel very fortunate to influence their lives, as they do mine.

My Project

It's that time of year again when students are excited to go back to school! In order for the school year to start off on the right foot, we need supplies. Crayons, markers, pencils and paper are just a few of the essentials that make first grade so exciting.

Since many of my students do not have the financial means to buy their own supplies, I am looking for donors to help supplement their needs.

Many of my students come from low income homes and some families can't afford the bare necessities that are needed to start off the school year.
