My class comes from a very diverse backgrounds and many are from low income poverty homes. Our school is 85% free and reduced price lunch. Many students have not had school experience prior to kindergarten. Many come to school for the first time without any English skills. For many the school day is very important, as it is the only time for them to practice their English speaking, writing, and reading skills.

It is my goal for all my students to become lifelong readers.
