"Do not confine your children to your own learning for they were born in another time." – Hebrew Proverb.

My Mission

To empower all students to become successful in learning, leading, and serving today and in the future.
What we do

Out of the Mouths of Babes

Writing

We sincerely thank donors who take the time to provide resources for our classroom.

Reading

Reading is the cornerstone of our classroom. Guest readers are welcome, as are gently-used book donations.

Speaking

Anytime a community member or parent wants to share experise in the classroom, we are more than ready to listen. Learning how to speak in f ront of an audience is an important 21st century skill.

Collaboration

While it may be cliche, "Teamwork makes the dream work," rings true in our classroom. We believe in working as a community and strive to embed collaborative skills in a CoVid-crazy world.

Our Classes

Grow
Through the use of S.M.A.R.T. goals and a focus on the development of a growth mindset, students strive to overcome the barriers of a fixed mindset.
Engage
Projects such as blackout poetry, acrostics on Teams, and multi-genre research help steer learners into unchartered territories and provide opportunities to think outside the box.
Goal-Setting
Setting reading goals is a major part of our classroom. We use rich, high-interest texts to engage us as we explore the jargon expected of English learners.
3,000 students
