• Learning About Our World With Scholastic News!

  Funded Mar 4, 2025

  On behalf of our entire first grade classroom, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your generous donation of a Scholastic News subscription. Your support has made a meaningful difference in our students' daily learning experience.

  Each week, the children eagerly await the arrival of the newest issue. The colorful pages, age-appropriate articles, and engaging activities capture their attention and spark thoughtful questions and conversations. It's such a joy to see their eyes light up as they explore new topics—from animals and science to current events and geography.

  Your contribution is not just a donation—it's an investment in our students' growth. Through Scholastic News, they're not only improving their reading skills but also developing a better understanding of the world around them. These magazines have become a favorite part of our week and a powerful tool for classroom discussion.

  Thank you for helping to create a richer, more engaging learning environment. We are truly grateful for your kindness and commitment to education.”
