I teach in a Title I elementary school with 100% of the students receiving free and reduced lunch. These students come from low income, poverty, and even homeless backgrounds. Along with this, over half of the school population is filled with students from other countries who are English Language Learners. As a first year teacher, I find myself struggling to obtain the learning tools and materials needed in order to meet the needs of the diversity of students I encounter on a daily basis. With your help and donations towards my projects, I will be able to engage, teach, and lead all my students towards success inside and outside the classroom!
