The purpose of this project is to equip high school students with essential real-world communication skills that extend beyond digital interactions. It addresses the need for students to understand and practice formal written communication in a business context.
This project will addresses several key needs:
• Real-World Application: It moves beyond theoretical learning by having students engage with actual businesses they know, making the learning more relatable and practical. This helps bridge the gap between classroom knowledge and real-world scenarios, preparing them for future interactions with companies as consumers, employees, or entrepreneurs.
• Professionalism and Etiquette: The project teaches students about the importance of a professional tone, clear articulation, and proper formatting—skills crucial for effective communication in academic, professional, and civic life.
• Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking: Students must think critically about a product or service, formulate constructive feedback or specific inquiries, and organize their thoughts logically to present them effectively.
• Attention to Detail: The act of correctly addressing an envelope and formatting a letter reinforces the importance of precision and attention to detail in formal contexts.
The primary learning goal of this project is for students to demonstrate proficiency in drafting and formatting a professional business letter, including accurate envelope addressing, while effectively communicating a specific purpose (e.g., feedback, inquiry, suggestion) to an external organization.

The purpose of “Real Connections” is to immerse Spanish 3 and 4 students in authentic, real-world Spanish language and culture through curated materials that reflect how Spanish is used in professional, social, and cultural contexts across the Spanish-speaking world. This project aims to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the dynamic, global reality students will encounter in college, in the workforce, and as global citizens.
The need it addresses is the lack of access to real-world, engaging, and culturally relevant materials in the traditional classroom. While textbooks provide a strong grammatical foundation, they often lack current, authentic content that shows students how Spanish is used in real life — in magazines, job postings, online news, social media, visual storytelling, and career fields.
The project supports the following learning goals and outcomes:
1. Interpretive Communication (Reading/Listening)
2. Interpersonal and Presentational Communication
3. Cultural Competence and Career Readiness
4. Higher-Level Language Proficiency
As Spanish 3 and 4 are upper-level courses, this project emphasizes:
Advanced vocabulary for the workplace and academic discussions
Complex grammatical structures in an authentic context

a) The purpose of Books Come to Life is to increase student engagement in reading, comprehension, and expression by transforming literature into hands-on, performance-based experiences. Many of my students—especially ELL and ESE learners—need creative, multimodal ways to demonstrate understanding. This project addresses the need for differentiated instruction, equitable access to materials, and activities that allow all students to feel confident and connected to texts.
b) This project supports deep engagement with grade-level literary texts by addressing multiple Florida B.E.S.T. ELA standards in an integrated, student-centered format. Students will analyze how story elements—such as setting, conflict, and characterization—develop the plot (ELA.5.R.1.1), explain how themes emerge and evolve across a text (ELA.5.R.1.2), and describe character perspective and development (ELA.5.R.1.3). As students respond through dramatic performance, visual storytelling, or creative writing, they will apply narrative techniques, organizational structures, elaboration, and varied transitions to enhance clarity and meaning (ELA.5.C.1.2, ELA.5.C.1.4). Oral presentation of student work builds speaking and listening skills aligned to ELA.5.C.2.1, while rehearsing and presenting scenes aloud supports fluency, prosody, and expression (ELA.5.F.1.4). By combining literary analysis with creative expression, this project allows students to demonstrate mastery of standards in authentic and engaging ways.

a) The purpose of this project is to foster a love of reading and increase student literacy through access to the full collection of the 2025–2026 Sunshine State Young Readers Award (SSYRA) books for grades 3–5. These highly engaging titles promote reading for pleasure, build reading stamina, and expose students to diverse genres, voices, and themes. Many of my students lack access to new or high-interest books at home or through our limited classroom library. This project addresses the need for student choice, independent reading growth, and equitable access to current literature.
b) The SSYRA Book Club project directly supports Florida B.E.S.T. ELA benchmarks that build independent reading stamina, comprehension, and analysis. As students read across genres, they will summarize texts with attention to theme, plot, and central ideas and explain how relevant details support the central idea in informational texts. Regular reading and discussion of SSYRA titles will improve fluency, accuracy, and prosody and strengthen the ability to analyze an author’s purpose and perspective. Book response projects will support the use of academic vocabulary in speaking and writing, and written reflections will reinforce elaboration and organization. With structured access to high-quality texts and standards-based discussion, students will grow as independent, confident readers and thinkers, all while fostering a love of reading.

A) Every year, I strive to guide large classes of lately arriving students who are both new to the United States and to English through the monumental task of making roughly fifteen years of linguistic growth inside of two in the hope that even if they struggle to pass the benchmarks for graduation set forth by the state in language arts, they'll be capable of surpassing those demands within four. These students frequently arrive speaking Spanish, French, Haitian Creole, Kiche, Maam, Akatek, and a variety of other tribal languages only found in the departments of Guatemala. They all come with little to no English exposure and more than a small number come with no formal schooling. These students come to us having experienced more in their short years than many of us will in a lifetime. They come seeking a better life. There are few routes more secure in obtaining this than a good education. A good education requires an understanding of the host culture's language. This proposal seeks nothing more than to offer these students learning English as a new language flexible and stout tools with which to build a solid foundation in English.
B) This investment targets growth in understanding the English language across three separate skill levels. It is not inconceivable to state that it could impact all academic goals that demand a usage of our language in both everyday and academic language. Specifically, however, this investment will focus on rapid, high-utility vocabulary acquisition; usage of basic grammar rules; speaking; listening; and scaffolded comprehension skills using targeted practice.

We provide free personal care items such as deodorant, shampoo, lotion, and other hygiene essentials for students in our community, as well as basic school supplies. Many of the families we serve face economic challenges, leaving students without access to basic necessities. This lack of resources not only impacts their personal confidence but can also negatively affect their school attendance and overall academic success.

a) What is the overall purpose of this project and what need(s) does it address?
The purpose of this project is to upgrade an existing classroom aquaponics system to provide a more robust, sustainable, and engaging platform for science instruction. The original system was built using repurposed and makeshift materials as a pilot to determine whether aquaponics could enhance student understanding of middle school chemistry concepts aligned with Florida’s science standards. After two full years of implementation and data collection, results have demonstrated that this approach not only deepens conceptual understanding but also significantly boosts student performance.
This need for an upgrade is driven by the strong outcomes already achieved. On the most recent State Science Assessment, 70% of my students achieved a passing score, compared to the statewide average of 49%. Among English Language Learners, my classroom saw a 38% pass rate—more than double the state average of 18%. All of my advanced students (100%) passed. These gains are particularly impressive given the challenges of teaching complex chemistry concepts to a diverse student population using a makeshift system.
To maintain and build upon these gains, the aquaponics system must now be upgraded with durable, classroom-appropriate materials. A more reliable setup will allow for broader instructional use, better accommodate growing class sizes, and minimize instructional disruptions due to equipment failure. The project addresses the need for equitable access to high-quality, real-world STEM learning tools that are proven to elevate academic achievement.
b) What learning goals or academic outcomes does the project address?
This project addresses student mastery of key Florida middle school chemistry standards, including SC.8.P.8.7 (atomic theory), SC.8.P.9.1 (law of conservation of mass), and SC.8.P.9.2 (chemical and physical changes). The upgraded aquaponics system will allow students to explore these standards through direct application—monitoring chemical reactions in nutrient cycling, testing water quality, and observing real-time changes in matter within a living ecosystem.
Through this hands-on approach, my students develop a deeper understanding of scientific processes, data collection, and experimental design. The strong results from the previous year demonstrate that this method not only supports standards mastery but also improves performance across diverse student groups. The upgraded system will ensure consistent access to these learning experiences, resulting in higher academic achievement, stronger critical thinking skills, and a more equitable learning environment for all students.

This grant will help to support specifically two of the school's guiding beliefs: 'children learn best and progress in environments that support their individual developmental needs' and 'education today requires new ways of thinking and working together to ensure success for all'.

The goal of this grant is to give my math students a daily opportunity to reinforce math skills in an engaging and challenging format. 5th grade math skills are a challenge to master due to the difficulty of the content, and additional resources can help the students to grasp the content due to the ability of this program to be used not only at school but at home, and the ability to provide endless practice problems, as well as examples and videos to help master the content. The students will increase their skills and gain confidence in their abilities.

The purpose of this project is to have students use Classkick technology program to complete work, help others students, and to receive feedback from the teacher in real time. There is a need for a classroom of students to be monitored while working, as well as to assist and guide students. This program allows all of that, at the same time! It allows students questions and teacher help, without bringing attention to the student, which increases their engagement and motivation for the task. This will then allow students to work towards mastery of grade level standards.
