My Students

"Alone we are smart. Together we are brilliant." ~Steven Anderson

My students are bright and want to achieve greatness.

They are creative and eager to learn. My scholars are excited to be in school and I am excited to be with them. I believe in them and I believe with the right resources they can achieve greatness.

Our school is a Title I school. Living in a low socio economic school community, our student population is predominantly in temporary housing or in shelters. We provide 100% free breakfast and lunch to our students. 10% of our students are experiencing homelessness.

My students are eager to learn and are excited when they can experience new ways of learning.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a place to go. We just need some help in achieving our goal. The paper will be used for copying assignments and for the students to print their school work that needs to be turned. The paper will be used for class projects. I will use the laminating sheets and sheet protectors to protect and preserve their work. The markers will be used to create charts and posters for the students.

The donations to this project will help to improve my students work.

The paper we receive will continue to enhance our work. With this amount of paper we will not have to limit the amount of work we do with fear that we won't have enough or may run out. I believe your assistance will provide my students with the major materials they need to blossom in my classroom.
