About

Sulphur Springs K-8 Community School was originally built in 1926 and has served the Sulphur Springs Community for over 85 years. We are a true community school with strong partnerships including the YMCA and the Sulphur Springs Neighborhood of Promise (SSNOP). Students who attend SSK8 have the opportunity to enroll in the site-based YMCA program where after school extracurricular activities and focused tutoring sessions are provided. Together, the YMCA and the school sponsor several parent involvement and community events including monthly Dinner and Dialogue meetings and annual larger events such as Gardenfest, Family Math Night, and Multicultural Night, to name a few. In addition, we also have the Norma and Joseph Robinson Partnership Library adjoined to our school media center. This is a public library operated by the City of Tampa and is open to our students, staff, and neighborhood six days per week.

3rd Grade Teacher

"Do it with love." That is my motto and philosophy within my classroom. I work in a Title 1 school in Tampa, Florida. I have worked in first grade and am currently a third grade math and science teacher. I believe in doing everything with love, especially when it comes to my students, having them know I love them makes all the difference in my instruction and their achievement. They are odd defying and they deserve to have the best education possible. I believe in showing them a world they may not ever get a chance to see themselves. Whether it be pretending we are doctors in math instruction, traveling back in time in social studies, or becoming chefs in science using solar energy, my students get the real world application in their instruction. I believe in making our classroom a home and I would like to give them that opportunity by infusing more originality in my room for them every year.
