From Butterflies to SCIENTISTS!

Funded Mar 9, 2022

We cannot thank you enough for your generous and thoughtful gift. Through your donation, you brought smiles to the faces of so many children and allowed them to become real life scientists!

Being in school online can often present a challenge: how can we connect students to what they are learning? Because of your gift, we were able to get supplies to all of our first graders and their families so that they could experience the life cycle of a butterfly. Students were able to touch, watch, listen to, and even smell their caterpillars/pupas/butterflies as they developed their inquiry skills. This was so engaging, that we STILL have students who contact us and talk about what a special experience this was. In addition, this brought together all of our students as we met in person for the very first time to release our butterflies into nature. To say that this brought joy would be the understatement of the year!

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for this gift of learning that you have so generously bestowed upon our students. We will never forget it.”

With gratitude,

Ms. Puchi
