  • Empowering Young Minds: Support Our Students' Success

    Funded Aug 15, 2024

    Thank you SO much for funding my project! I, along with my students, am incredibly grateful. The children in my classroom are the most kind, giving, and enthusiastic learners you will ever meet. With your help, they will be able to have a year filled with learning and fun. This will allow us to have a smooth and exciting beginning to the school year. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Averbeck

  • Help Our Classroom Library!

    Funded Sep 14, 2016

    I wanted to personally thank you for helping to build our classroom library. These new books have created so much joy in my class, and they are so excited to read the new titles that have been added. My students were even more thrilled to hear that people they didn't know (donors) cared so much about their education that they were willing to buy us new books.

    Furthermore, they actively seek out these texts when they are choosing their new books. They constantly ask, "Did the people who donated these books give this one? What about this one?!" Students have now completed many books of several series, and are fascinated by the nonfiction texts that provide many visuals to aid in their reading.

    For my struggling readers, this has been an absolute godsend. I no longer need to ask them to take out their books, because they are so interested in what they are reading. (They do this automatically!) Many have seen amazing growth in their reading levels, and I am sure that your contribution is a large reason why. Your generosity has helped improve so many fourth graders' educations, and for that I will always be grateful.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Averbeck

My students need more reading level- specific books in our classroom library such as Henry and Mudge, Cam Jansen and Nate the Great! We have a diverse community of learners in our classroom. As teachers, we want to support every single student and expand their love of learning by providing them with the books they need to succeed. We are asking for books from first to third grade reading levels, because we do not have the amount needed to support our students' learning needs. Our students use our classroom books as their sole resource for reading at home and school. We are determined that our kids are provided with high quality reading material, so they can advance their reading levels throughout their fourth grade year.
