My Students

My unique, enthusiastic students are students in an inner-city, Title I school. All the students are entitled to free lunch, as well as breakfast. This does not stop their determination and hard work. These students are focused and fun to work with.

My students are an enthusiastic and diverse group of lifelong learners.

They love to learn and have a great work ethic. They are eager little learners. These children may be learners today, but they are the leaders of tomorrow.

My Project

Our students come from low income families and need warm coats as winter as rapidly approaching; some of our children are shelter children. Sadly, many of our students come to school without proper winter gear. Having asthma also makes this difficult as it can trigger an attack.

Please help keep our school community warm and cozy this holiday season.

Your generous donation will not only keep our kids warm, but it will also touch their hearts and make them feel cared for and part of something- like they belong. Being warm, feeling like you belong and being comfortable is essential to learning.
