  • "STEM-TASTIC" First Grade Fun!

    Funded Sep 17, 2024

    My students and I would like to thank you so much for your kindness and generosity. With your support, we were able to get our "STEM-TASTIC First Grade Fun" project funded and will be able to do some wonderful STEM activities!

    My students will be the future researchers and innovators. The LEGO building kits have engaged students in hands-on STEM learning. STEM education that enables young minds to innovate and create is a priority in my classroom. I requested a variety of kits so that my students would have opportunities to engage in real, hands-on building and creating. They have been able to research, work collaboratively, and problem solve. These skills have enriched our young learners educational experience due to your kind and thoughtful support.

    We are so grateful and excited! Thank you!!"”

  • Energize Our Bodies and Minds with Snacks!

    Funded Apr 18, 2024

    As a teacher, it is extremely rewarding to see that others are willing to help us give our students what they need to succeed. We would not have been able to do this alone. I am extremely grateful to Donors Choose and to YOU for your contribution. Without you, our students would not be able to enjoy learning the way a child should. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity. We are truly grateful. Every little bit of kindness goes a very long way and we appreciate you.

    Some heroes wear capes, but ours support DonorsChoose!"”

  • Wonderful Warm Winter Wishes!

    Funded Dec 12, 2023

    Thank you so much for the Lego sets for my students. They were so excited to receive their presents. I gave them their Legos right before the holiday break, many of their parents texted me that they put the set together with no problem. All my students were so happy to receive their gifts.

    Thank you again for the snacks for my student's sometime the kids need an extra push to get them through the long day and snacks are a great incentive.

    I am so grateful for the hat and glove sets for all my students. My students lose their gloves and hats often so having this extra set for them is so helpful when we go outside. It is a relief to know that they will remain warm and comfortable. I am beyond grateful for your support and generosity to my classroom. I often want to be able to give my students things to make their lives easier and more enjoyable and through your generous donations I was able to do it this holiday season. Thank you for your kindness!”

  • Energize Our Bodies and Minds With Snacks!

    Funded Oct 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generous donation. My students are so grateful for the snacks in the classroom. They were thrilled that Michael Jordan and the Jordan Brand funded this grant.

    My kids often are hungry by the end of the day. I am so grateful that I can now provide them with a snack, which is also a great incentive for them to finish the day strong and the week strong. Thank you so much for your kind donation. I am so appreciative for you supporting my classroom and public schools. My students truly are great kids and really appreciate your generosity and kindness.

    Thank you again for all that you do.”

  • 2,4,6,8 School Supplies Are Really Great!

    Funded Aug 27, 2023

    Thank you for your kindness and generosity. I am so grateful to have the new name tags, stars, Kleenex, and personal organizer. School has been in session for about five days and my first graders are so excited. They love seeing their name tags and colorful stars for their lockers. It is so nice to know that my students will be coming into a classroom that is fully prepared and organized for them to learn. I am also grateful for my personal planner, it has kept the classroom on track for learning.

    It is so nice to start the year off with these additional items. Thank you so much for supporting public schools and my first grade classroom.”

    Mrs. Rotole

This classroom project would provide my students to drink and eat hot and cold food at lunch, snack time and class parties. A mini-refrigerator would be a perfect solution to keep drinks, snacks and lunch items cool for my students. The kids currently keep their snacks in a bin and often the food should be refrigerated. It would also be nice to have the microwave to heat up food for class parties and lunch items that require a microwave. A compact refrigerator and microwave would be a perfect solution for my small classroom.
