My Students

Ladies and Gentleman let me present to you the classes of 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. These students are in middle school and eager to go college. Our motto this new year is: "College. You can get there from here."

My students need to be equipped with collaboration skills and have opportunities to interact with one another.

On a daily basis, my students have many experiences by working with peers and groups. The collaboration piece is vital to their success in the college setting.

My Project

My students are getting excited and geared up for college. As we know in college, when college students study, they are given many different opportunities to choose where they study. Some may study at a local coffee shop, in their dormitories or even while working out!

Student choice and responsibility are two very important themes I want my students to have in our classroom.

I want my students to begin to choose and assume full responsibility where to sit and learn. Even at this early age, it is important I equip them now at the middle school level with beanbag seats. Thank you!
