  • Basic School Supplies

    Funded Feb 1, 2025

    Thank you so much for these school supplies! It is such a blessing to my scholars to have these items. Working in a title 1 school, I never want my students to be without things that they will need to make them successful. I am so happy to be able to provide students with these supplies so we can have a great end of the school year!

    Your support of our classroom is amazing and VERY much appreciated! These items are going to help us every step of the year as we learn. We are looking forward to finishing the year out strong.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Murray

  • Creativity with Crayola

    Funded Jan 24, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generosity! My students love all of our new supplies for our class. It will give us enough coloring tools to replenish our stock and get us through until the end of the school year! Working in a title 1 school can be a challenge, especially regarding supplies. There is such a different between Crayola products and he generic ones, but they are pricy. My goal is to provide my students with products that work well and last, so they can thrive. This is such a blessing to us and please know how much we truly appreciate it!”

  • Pants for Clothing Pantry

    Funded Jan 27, 2025

    Thank you so very much for your generosity. Having a well stocked clothing pantry is certainly a blessing to our school and students. Needing a change of clothes can be embarrassing and having something available for students so that they can stay in school and have a fresh set of clothes, instead of getting sent home to change, can help for SO many reasons. In a perfect world, the students would each have brought in a change of clothes to keep in the classroom, but unfortunately in a title 1 school with many students below the poverty line, that is not something they are unable to do because they do not have extra clothes. Giving them something brand new that they can stay clean in is so amazing. Please know that you have made such a huge difference!”

  • Math Games for Learning

    Funded Jan 25, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generosity! These Blink math games are such a blessing for our students! We are utilizing a curriculum called Primary Education Thinking skills, where we learn things like attributes. This game is going to be a great accompaniment

    to this curriculum as we delve into our higher order thinking skills.

    Working in a title 1 school poses unique challenges, such as funding to provide all of the resources that we would like to for our students. It is such a blessing to have enough games now for ALL of our students to participate!”

  • Books and Bookshelf

    Funded Jan 23, 2025

    Thank you so very much. My students appreciate it, from the bottom of our hearts. My students love to read and many of our books showing their wear. Adding these books to our class is adding a burst of excitement!

    These books are not only going to be used by so many student this year, but also will be read by so many students for years to com! Having a diverse shelf of books to enjoy is so important, so each student can find exactly what sparks their interest. Please know how thankful we are and it is such a blessing to all of us!”

  • Clean and Healthy in 2025

    Funded Jan 21, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generosity, with lots of supplies to keep us clean and healthy this school year! It is often a challenge to keep students healthy with so many illnesses going around! Having supplies for them to clean their hands each day certainly helps!

    We also appreciate having a broom and dustpan to clean up messes. It is frustrating when there is crumbs from snacks or other things on the ground. Having a broom allows us to keep the floor clean and free from any critters who could sneak in.

    Supplies can be a challenge working in a title 1 school, so having all the things that we need is such a blessing to us!”

  • Let's Read Some Books

    Funded Jan 18, 2025

    Thank you so much for all of your generosity! My students are such avid book lovers and especially love to find new books to read. I always make it a goal to spark curiosity and interest in books with my students. Each year and each student is different and has different interests, so I always try to have a wide array of titles on hand. As I build my classroom library up, there is more opportunities for excitement around reading. I am hoping to create students who will be lifelong readers! Please know how much we appreciate your help in building up our library!”

  • Blink Fun with Attributes

    Funded Jan 8, 2025

    Thank you so much for your generous donations! The students are so excited to play Blink, which is helping them to understand attributes. We are working on higher order thinking skills and this is definitely helpful for them! Part of our YET University is helping students learn various higher order thinking skills, which will help them to understand in all parts of their learning. Please know how much we appreciate your generosity. These games are loved by the students this year and will be for years to come as well!”

  • Kleenex Tissues

    Funded Jan 12, 2025

    Thank you SO much of the tissues. It is such a blessing to have enough tissues to get through all of the colds before the end of the school year! We are going through so many tissues every day and despite pleas from parents, I have not had many get sent in. I would hate for them to have to blow their noses on those hard brown paper towels, which is so uncomfortable.

    It is such a relief to have nice soft tissues for their delicate noses. It is the basic supplies every student should have, but unfortunately is not provided to us. Please know how much we truly appreciate it!”

My students are diverse and love to learn. They are engaged in the process and a joy to teach. My school is a wonderful community of teachers and students. Though our school is great, it comes with challenges as a Title 1 school. We struggle to meet the needs of our students, because of lack of rigorous, innovative, and fun items in the classroom, which would engage students and encourage learning!
