Principal Of Olney Elementary School.

Maria Lewis

Special Education Teacher

Hello, I am a second career teacher. I was in the financial world for many years and felt empty. I would go to work and thought I am not making the world a better place, then after much contemplation I became a teacher. I am excited everyday for the prospect of touching the future. I only wish I began this career as a young person, because teachers work harder than any other profession I know.

Heather Crane

Teacher

I am a teacher of students who come from low income families and attend an inner city public school which has very little to offer in the area of financial support. I have been teaching in inner city Philadelphia for 18 years. My goal is to help each individual student work to their best ability.

I am a sixth grade teacher trying to raise money for my school at Olney Elementary. I am looking to raise $2,000. The money will go towards buying and installing air conditioning, buying text books and supplies for students, buying new technology and programs to help our special needs students and english as second language speakers, and adding to our funds for field trips. Please please please help me raise the money for our kids!

My students are 9, 10, and 11 year olds with autism. Each is unique, but all struggle when sensory situations become too much. They try their best to manage their sensory issues, but many need extra help to compensate. The majority of students come from low income families and attend an inner city public school which has very little to offer in the area of financial support. I have been teaching special education for 12 years. My goal is to help my students achieve to the best of their ability.
