• Stay Thirsty My Friend, NOT!

  Funded Sep 24, 2021

  My students were ecstatic when they received our cases of water. Due to COVID , our students are not allowed to drink from the water fountains.

  By providing each student with their individual bottles of water, we are allowed to keep our COVID cases low in our school. Each individual student when they are thirsty is allowed to retrieve a bottle of cold water to rehydrate them.

  Not only we are using the bottles of water to rehydrate ourselves but we are also studying how to keep our environment clean and safe. The children are also recycling the water bottles.

  Class 5-213 is very gracious and will like to thank all our donors who contributed to help end our thirst and make drinking water safe.”

• Read to Succeed!

  Funded Nov 27, 2018

  My class was so happy when they received their new library. They all joined in to prepare their new library with their various reading materials. Many of the students are engaged in reading their books for leisure because they all are participants in a program called "Read to Succeed" . Our new books provided students the opportunity to read books for enjoyment to meet their reading requirements of six hours of reading for pleasure.

  We are also preparing students for the fourth grade science state test. Part of our new library contains stem books. Students were excited to see topics that match what they are learning in stem.

  My class loves the series books such as Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Captain Underpants and the comic books. On Friday afternoons a time is set aside for them to curl up and read a good book for enjoyment and they are loving it! We are very grateful for all your donations to help make our library come to life with new and exciting books. Once again we will like to say Thank You!”
