Principal Sneed: Impacting Students Like Me

By Jan Osborn, Dallas Doing Good

United to Learn (U2L), a Dallas-based nonprofit that partners with Dallas ISD elementary schools to accelerate student achievement and grow purposeful leaders, helped 50 Dallas ISD elementary schools gear up for the new school year by fulfilling teachers’ supply requests through their annual Learning Launch program. The program, which is Dallas’ only back-to-school supply drive that provides schools with teacher-requested learning resources and tools, alleviates the financial and time burden of teachers and administrators who typically spend an average of $600 of their own money annually! Learning Launch equips Dallas elementary schools and classrooms for the first day of school and beyond.

One of the elementary schools that received support from United to Learn is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Learning Center. We spoke with the school’s principal, Principal Romikianta Sneed about her journey in education and how United to Learn helps support her vision for her school.
