I work in a public middle school with a mix of student needs and demographics. Over 60% of our students receive free/reduced lunch, so there is a distinct need for community help for our students. My room is a safe place for all, and my goal is to make my lessons fun and applicable to the real world. The middle school years are a crucial time in a child's development. I am on a mission to reignite that spark that my students once had when they first began going to school. I need to help them realize that their decisions today will shape their paths for tomorrow. I would like to focus on helping students understand their emotions and actively practice empathy towards others in their lives. Your support will help me complete my mission.
