Help Us Start the New Year With a KleenSlate
Funded Jan 5, 2017I cannot begin to explain the look of awe on my students faces when I showed them our new whiteboards and explained the means in which we received them. They learned a lesson in generosity, as well as gratitude that day, and I thank you for that. Children learn by doing... by experience... and to experience the kindness of others first-hand is a powerful thing. We have been using the whiteboards faithfully during math and literacy. Student engagement is at its highest when everyone has a voice. Even the shyest of students can can share equally, without fear. These whiteboards have given all my students a voice.”

First Grade Readers In The House!
Funded Oct 10, 2011I would like to let you know that your thoughtfulness and generosity have not gone unnoticed. We read every day, and it is easy to go through the few books our classroom has in the course of a school year. Your donation made it possible for the first graders to add to their collection of titles read in first grade.
We are very lucky to have people like that can help out our classroom, and make it a place where literature is at our reach at all times. ”
With gratitude,

Meeting at the Rug or Game of Twister?
Funded Mar 21, 2011This note can never truly express the gratitude that is in my heart. Your generosity has made such a positive impact in our classroom. The rug you donated to is absolutely amazing. The size and clear sections have taken the guesswork out of who sits where and completely eliminated the sardine-like atmosphere.
The students are comfortable and happy. We are able to spend more time at the carpet, and we can even accommodate two smaller groups there when we go off to do our independent learning. The students feel honored to know that there are people out in the world that are willing to help them get a better education.
Thank you again for your generous donation.”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Fargo
