Hello! I'm going on my 16th year as a teacher for SAISD. I love teaching on the east side of San Antonio at a neighborhood school, Gates Elementary.
I believe in the power of education and the ability to read as tools to help achieve success and happiness in life. My mission is to encourage students to become life long learners and make positive choices in life. Teachers always go out of their way to purchase supplies for their classroom every year. This year will be interesting but I know educators will appreciate the donations and the support! Thank you so much for your consideration in donating to this cause. xoxo
The Communities In Schools’ (CIS) Stuff The Bus School Supply Drive is one of city's largest school supply drives that serves thousands of under-served students and families. Many of these families are below the poverty line and cannot afford all the supplies their children need to start their school year. The funds raised through this event will be given to over 100 CIS partnering schools (elementary-high school) across 12 school districts to purchase supplies for any student in need at that campus. The Stuff The Bus School Supply Drive helps to alleviate the stress of back-to-school expenses and allows students to focus on their education with the tools they need to be successful.
