My Students

Our students are a close-knit community in a creative little enclave in Los Angeles, CA. Our first graders love school and learning and severely miss being in the physical classroom with their friends. We are doing our best to create engaging, rich lessons, even remotely.

My Project

Our first graders thrive with hands-on projects and need the simplest of materials to create and engineer amazing creations. We spend time each week on STEM projects and we need to make sure all students have equal access to building supplies. These supplies will ensure that the curious first grade minds get the opportunity to plot, plan, build, and create a vast array of projects that will challenge their creativity and expand their skills to ensure amazing and creative project results. I'm excited to see their excitement and their creations.
