• Help Students Practice their English!

  Funded Dec 4, 2023

  Thank you so much for your donation and making this project happen! The headphones have been such a great addition to our classroom. They are very high quality and my students love how comfortable they are.

  My student's learning experiences have been greatly enhanced by the addition of headphones with microphones. They are now able to practice speaking in English using the microphones and the sound quality has been really fantastic. It is so important in a classroom of newcomer English Language Learners that all students have numerous, authentic opportunities to apply their English skills. These headphones have allowed for my students to do this type of work and I am very grateful! That you again for improving our classroom and supporting the English Language Development of English learners. We are all so appreciative of your donation!”

• First Grade Learning Supplies

  Funded Jul 12, 2021

  Thank you very much for your contribution to this project! Every year, students need so many supplies in order to have a successful school year. Because of you my students now have scissors, glue sticks, folders, crayons and markers that they can use throughout our learning day. Without your support, many of these learning supplies would have to be paid for by myself. As a teacher, this financial burden is significant, which is why support from you is so incredibly meaningful! My students and I are grateful for the ways you have helped improve our classroom.”
