After a year with the brilliant students of East Central Junior High, I am more energized than ever for the new school year. Last year, we used our PledgeCents funds to get organized, clean up our classroom, discover new places, analyze power structures around the world, ask questions of people in power, and master high school level evidence-based writing. If you are curious about what we accomplished last year, feel free to check out the "Room 115" highlight on my personal instagram: @anabodyhome

This year, I will be looping up with some of my students, and will teach 2 sections of 8th grade US History AND 3 sections of 7th grade Geography. I'm extremely excited for this opportunity, because I get to keep teaching some of my old students while also welcoming new students to our community. I'm sure that I will be challenged in new and interesting ways, and I can't wait to keep learning and developing as an educator.

With that said, I have very specific needs when it comes to supplies, which I have listed below. I have budgeted that it will take about $500 for the whole school year (besides special projects that may arise), so the closest we can get to that number the better.

As always, I appreciate any and all support! I look forward to sharing the year with you.

Much love,
Ana Barros
