  • Healthy Snacks for Preschool

    Funded Jan 12, 2024

    Thank you for supporting us and helping us get the supplies and materials we needed in our classrooms. These resources are a huge asset to the room. The students having snacks throughout the school day have proven to be successful. They are more engaged and willing to learn. The food insecurities within our students' homes are a big concern. I am very happy to know that when they come to school, their basic needs are being met everyday and they are able to focus on their learning and growing with their peers.”

  • STEM Cubes

    Funded Jan 1, 2024

    Thank you for supporting us and helping us get the supplies and materials we needed in our classrooms. These resources are a huge asset to the room. The students have been able to show their basic foundational skills when it comes to STEM skills. The students are able to count, add, and match with these resources. They are able to build and engineer structures. These are the first skills needed to build good foundational skills when becoming older.

    Thank you for all of the support and help in the classroom. We are excited to continue to use these supports for years to come!”

  • Math Counters for Financial Literacy

    Funded Sep 30, 2023

    Thank you for helping us get the resources in our classrooms. These small counters help in many different ways. Students have used these for imaginative play, but we are able to work on basic foundational math skills. The students are using these counters to help them with one to one correspondence, catergorizing, sorting, and naming. This has improved their engagement because they are excited to work with all those different animals. This has helped us figure out what the students have learned with numbers and number sense. Thanks!”

  • Build and Engineer

    Funded Aug 4, 2023

    Thank you for all of the support for our students. Magnatiles are the most popular toy used in the preschool classroom. These tiles are different and have been a huge hit with the students. They have been able to mix and match the tiles with other tiles to have great imaginative play. While they are playing, they are also working on many skills like fine motor, creativity, and learning together.

    The students are having a blast creating stories, characters, and events using these tiles and showing where it went by building. Thank you for helping us build our imagination.”

  • Write and Save

    Funded Aug 10, 2023

    Thank you for helping us get the correct supplies in the hands of teachers and students. These laminating sheets and pens are being used to make memories and helping the parents keep the artwork and writing from their children to cherish for a long time.

    The pens are new to our preschoolers, but they love to use them because it is a special occassion, knowing that their work is going home with them to show their parents. These laminating sheets will be used to lock these memories in for many years to look back and see the growth and learning.

    Thanks!”

  • Backpack for Home

    Funded Aug 3, 2023

    Thank you for helping our students and teachers get the supplies they need in the classrooms. These bags have already been packed and ready to go home with students. The book bags will be utilized all school year long to allow students and parents to have the opportunity to read and learn while at home.

    The students are able to use these bags to bring the books back and forth and choose books that they are excited to share and read with their parents, siblings, and family at home.

    Thank you for your support and helping us get books in the hands of students' homes.”

In our schools, there are over 80 different languages and cultures represented. We need to provide our students with different resources to help learn differences, acceptance, and respect for all. My students would benefit from having access to different multicultural food items in the classroom to help gain awareness about differences within their community and their peers. With these resources, we will work together to help students see their identities included in their learning and provide more learning opportunities about cultural equity. These resources will allow students to have a more inclusive environment to learn.
