• Incredible Incentives!

  Funded Feb 7, 2025

  Thank you for the wonderful incentives to add to our classroom prize box. The fidget spinners, pencils, candy, and erasers are such fun additions for my students to choose from. My students love it when they can visit our prize box at the end of the week and choose a prize they like best to reward their work effort and progress throughout the week. These incentives for students effectively motivate them, promote positive behavior, and encourage academic achievement.

  Thank you again for making our classroom so special!”

• Let's Put Our Hands-On Learning!

  Funded Dec 31, 2024

  Thank you for funding our classroom project for these hands-on manipulatives. My students love using these color sets of magnetic letters to build words, which will help them practice "building" words by manipulating them while keeping them in their matching trays. The fine motor clips help my students build and refine their fine motor skills while also developing essential early literacy and numeracy skills. By physically engaging with the Hundreds Sensory Popper, my math intervention students can visualize and manipulate numbers, making abstract concepts like tens and ones more concrete. These materials make learning interactive and enjoyable. Having students manipulate objects helps reinforce concepts through physical interaction while aiding their mental retention. Thank you again for your generosity!”

• Together We Thrive: A School Initiative for Positive Behavior

  Funded Mar 3, 2025

  Thank you for your generosity in supporting our school's positive behavior initiatives. Our students will enjoy "shopping and purchasing" from the new rewards in our PBIS store using their Paw Points (school currency given for positive behavior). These new rewards represent some of the most requested items from our students that they may not have access to at home. Thank you again!”

• Building Up Literacy Skills!

  Funded Feb 28, 2025

  Thanks to your support, we can add these new hands-on reading manipulatives to our classroom. These manipulative phonics kits will be used to practice the phonics skills we are working on in reading intervention by building words, as well as encoding, and decoding words. Our students will use these materials for years to come. Your kindness truly makes a difference in their educational journey.”

• Linking Literacy in Learners' Lives

  Funded Feb 7, 2025

  My students often come from diverse backgrounds with rich traditions, stories, and ways of communication in their homes. Connecting literacy to what my students know and experience at home makes learning more relevant and personal, enhancing their ability to relate to the material. I love that we now have the materials needed to supply my reading intervention students with materials to practice their literacy skills at home as well as in my classroom. Thank you for your generosity!”

• STEM Stations Need Storage!

  Funded May 8, 2024

  I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation towards the new shelves for our classroom. Your support will make a tremendous difference in creating a more organized and efficient learning environment for our students.

  With the addition of the shelving, we can better store the STEM resources and materials, giving our students the space and tools they need to thrive. Your kindness truly enhances the educational experience we can provide, and we are incredibly grateful for your contribution.

  Thank you once again for your thoughtful generosity. Both the students and myself deeply appreciate it.”
