Class Description:
Our sixth grade students lead with distinction, and are fueled by creativity, teamwork and technology.

Needs:
With limited computer resources at home, our school’s technology is their main source to having their ideas, and voices be seen and heard. My goal is to keep up with the needs of our students, looking for means to provide the support, technology and resources that other schools can financially afford and support.
My Philosophy:
I am Mrs. Melo, here to inspire students to become successful life long learners, confident positive individuals, and contributive citizens.
