  • Flexible Seating? Yes Please!

    Funded Dec 4, 2024

    I just wanted to send a big thank you for your generous donation to our flexible seating project! Your support is going to make a huge difference in the classroom. With these new seating options, students will have the freedom to choose what works best for them, creating a more comfortable and engaging space for everyone.

    The kids and I are so excited about the changes, and we can’t wait to see how it helps all types of learners thrive. Your contribution truly means the world to us, and we’re so grateful for your help in making this possible.

    Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. DeCruz

  • The Greeks Live On!

    Funded Dec 9, 2023

    Having books allowed our students to foster deep-rooted discussions on text that mattered to them. We practiced accountable talk by coming prepared to the table with vocabulary, favorite quotes, and questions (clarifying, inferences, and evaluations). We were able to incorporate math into our daily agenda as students calculated how many pages, they needed to read to be ready for our Book Club Friday. Students spent every Friday for six weeks engaging in rich conversations that detailed the challenges and changes within characters and filling their minds with wonderfully interesting Greek gods, goddesses, heroes, and monsters. Students who typically have learning happen around them suddenly became the force behind critical conversations. All students truly appreciated holding a book in their hands and waited all week for Friday's conversations. After reading the books, watching the newly released TV episodes, and taking a field trip to our high school for their musical performance of Percy Jackson, students unanimously concluded that the book was their favorite! Thank you for providing our students with such a wonderful learning opportunity!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. DeCruz

    This classroom project was brought to life by A family that cares about Boston and 9 other donors.
