It's a Celebration!
Funded May 29, 2018Thank you for giving students the opportunity to share their academic success! Students were able to reflect on the choices made and how they have experience growth in all content areas. As students observed their work, they shared how creative their stories were, and some even noticed missing elements. "I should have triple checked my work," explained one student.
As an educator, I am most proud of the confidence shared while celebrating. This party served as a future motivator to continue achieving and developing ways to improve. In our party, we shared tasty gummy snacks, chips, rice crispy marshmallows, and Capri-sun drinks. They were all delicious choices in helping my second graders celebrate their work at the end of the year!
Thank you for giving my second graders this opportunity!”

A Trip to City Growers!
Funded Feb 5, 2018Our classroom has changed since our trip to City Growers! Students are now connecting learning to real world experiences. Exposure boosted student motivation to read and learn new scientific facts. Their readiness to engage in creative imagination with the curriculum study has shown in each unit study.
Some students were caught saying did you know... as to suggest the facts they've learned has just been added to their library of knowledge. While others give the implication of critical thinking when they draw a comparison. My students simply appreciate the experience provided in their trip to City Growers. Once more, thank you for your gracious donation and a chance to change lives.”
