I work with gifted students at the high school level at a school that specializes in science and the arts rather than sports. Most of my students have had trouble fitting in at schools at some point in their lives and are looking for a place to belong.
I work with many students who have special needs as well.
My students work hard and have a desire to study. At their high school graduation, they will graduate with a high school diploma and an associate degree.
My Project
Our school's Table Tennis Team is advancing our skills! We have improved every week since we began this venture many months ago. Thanks to generous donors at DonorsChoose, we have been able to build a strong table tennis team that is ready for our first competitions! To prepare for this, we need to upgrade our paddles.
Professional table tennis rackets are important for students who want to excel in local competitions.
This equipment will allow our players to showcase what they can truly accomplish with the skill they have acquired. I am excited to see the potential of several players be unlocked with these paddles. I believe we can reach a new ceiling of table tennis excellence. With your help, I know we can achieve great things!
More than half of students from low‑income households
