Growing up in one of the most dangerous zip codes in America, walking through unplowed streets in the winter, eating all your meals at school. Welcome to Kindergarten. These kids deserve a high quality education and an inspiring learning environment. I do everything in my power to provide that. My goal is my students will realize their fullest potential through reading, math, exploring the world around them and by developing a social consciousness and awareness. We learn through community circles; if there is a problem between two students we work together to come up with a solution. I look at these learners as a whole person with fears, hopes, dreams, and goals. Through our time together- in our extended school year- every child should be prepared for First grade by the time they leave my classroom in August. If you believe that education is a human right, as I do, please take some time to learn about my students.
