  • Ink Needed!

    Funded Nov 15, 2023

    Thank you for helping us to keep our printer going! It would seem that our printer only stops running when we run out of ink. Maps, reports, research materials, copies of make-up work are constantly flowing through the machine. When we have ink this is done quickly and efficiently and everyone can keep right on working, learning, and progressing. The continued support of classroom partners like you who help from behind the scene keep classroom activities moving ahead at all times. You are appreciated.”

  • Accessing the Internet Anytime

    Funded Sep 19, 2023

    Thank you for this gift and for making possible for my students to access the world wide web at anytime it is appropriate to do so. You are helping to make sure that every child can get a high quality education no matter what is his or her personal background. Everyone deserves to start with a a fair chance in life. In the 21st century this means having the ability to utilize technology in a wide variety of circumstances. This computer makes sure that not just those from higher socio-economic backgrounds have that technological experience.”

  • AP Human Geography Text

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you for making a contribution to this project. I cannot stand the idea that a student might forgo an educational opportunity for the lack of a few dollars for a book. I was able to put two of these right into the hands of students who needed them. Now they are able to proceed with the work. Community partnership like yours helps to close gaps that circumstances sometimes creates. Not every student wishes to go the extra mile for their own benefit, but you can know that you have assisted some students who have made that decision.”

  • History Books Needed!

    Funded Jun 5, 2023

    Thank you for your kindness to my students. History touches so many topics and offers the chances to develop critical thinking skills. By providing books that are about various topics to a world history class we can look at those topics and learn to critique books. By providing books about different topics you are allowing students to tailor this skill to a topic of interest. This allows them to improve a skill while learning about something of personal interest. I am glad that you care about these young people.”

  • Ink, Ink, Ink

    Funded Feb 7, 2023

    Thank you for giving to this project. We are always in need of ink so that students can copy notes, print make up work or projects to hand in. While we live in a digital age there is still a real need for hard copies for editing or sharing. Some students find that they need take home copies when they have been absent due to illness. Keeping all of our classroom equipment supplied is of paramount importance. Your gift helps to make that, and learning, happen in our room. Your kindness is appreciated.”

  • We Need a Printer!

    Funded Oct 20, 2022

    I have already put the new printer to use! I have gotten progress reports to students who have missed school due to Flu and they have made up missing work. Students have printed sources and maps to include in a poster project. The reasons for which you gave to this project are coming through. Your help will make education happen for a number of students. There had been a bit of a gap in this kind of thing when our old printer died, but now we can do these things conveniently and timely. Thanks for your kindness.”

  • Ink Please!

    Funded Aug 1, 2022

    Please accept my sincere thanks for donating to this project. It will be a help to kids who are just trying to learn about the world in which they live. There are many times when things need to be printed right now instead of waiting for a time to get to the copier lab is available. This will let students print their own materials if they do not have a printer in their home. Some need a copy of a handout that was lost over time. This makes those things possible by providing the ink for our printer.”

I get to teach some great kids!! High school freshmen are an adventure. They come into high school not knowing what is expected or required of them even if they think that they do know. They come into high school needing to develop skills that will make them successful in high school and will allow themselves to get prepared for college. It is an exciting and a challenging time for everyone involved.
