My Students

Our school serves students in grades K-8 and provides rigorous academics, fantastic teachers and a safe learning environment. Our goal is to prepare our students for success in high school and college. Our school has a very diverse population with 100% receiving free breakfast and lunch in a total population of about 400 students.

We are an African Immersion school that focuses on the life and accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

My students are so lovable and deserve the best learning opportunities I can give them.

My Project

My kindergartners are a diverse, enthusiastic group this year. They are very energetic learners who like to be active. During a recent discussion about our outdoor play equipment, they wanted to know why the other class has tricycles and we don't, and thought I should go out and buy some for our class!

For most of my students, school is the only place where they can use a tricycle or even try one.

Most don't have the opportunity to visit the neighborhood parks and use equipment that they can climb on, ride, jump, and run on.

My students will be able to build their gross motor skills 60 minutes a day during PE and recess by pedaling the tricycles. These tricycles are Kid-inspired my students even picked out the ones they want to use to get active in the Kaplan catalog.

Please help us fulfill our Kid-Inspired Tricycle project so we can be active in K4 for 60 minutes a day!
