Our school is P3 thru 8th grade. We have foreign language, art, and theatre. I teach 4th thru 8th grade Science and Math. I personally teach 30 students, but our school is a small non-profit private school.
Position:
Teacher/Grant writer
Needs:
We have not gotten new computers, iPads, and other technology since the school has been opened. A lot of our technology can not be updated anymore and is slowing down to the point that it isn't useable. We are non-profit so we do not have additional funds right now to update our technology. We know that technology is essential to classroom instruction and motivates students.
My Philosophy:
To deliver a welcoming environment where every student is encouraged and challenged to develop academically, socially and personally in their quest of becoming an effective world citizen.
