My Students

My students were once identified by a previous administrator as "dying on the vine." Their particular demographic automatically places them within "at-risk" categories. But what people do not see that faculty and staff at my school see every day, is the hard work and dedication that my students possess. They possess perseverance to continue on when time after time they are doubted! They possess good hearts that care deeply about not only their academics but arts, classmates, music, sports as well!

My Project

My class works on many projects that require school supplies such as crayons, markers, colored pencils, glue, scissors, and other supplies. It becomes paramount to have an effective storage and retrieval of these supplies. The Cubby will not only effectively store all of my students’ school supplies, but it will also act as a quick retrieval for those very supplies. With your generous donation, instruction and learning will never be delayed due to my students trying to locate their supplies. On average, about 5 minutes are lost in my class every time we do an activity that requires various supplies. With the Cubby, we gain not only those minutes, but we gain success and organization skills as well!
