I love to see my students learn and grow. It’s so exciting to see them graduate and to know that I played a part in their success.

The I Give for Team DPS employee giving campaign, especially with the incentive from Superintendent Boasberg, is a way for educators to make a long term investment while knowing and seeing exactly the difference it makes for our students. By supporting the campaign I know that the money is going straight back to the students who need it.”
