• Necessary Learning Supplies!

  Funded Jan 21, 2024

  "Necessary Learning Supplies!" Was a hit! Thank you for the impact you made! When the students received the materials they were excited. The pencils were a hit because they were in the process of writing persuasive letters and they loved having multiple pencils at their disposal to write with. I was pleased to have a quiet room filled with writers who for the first time since school began didn't ask, "can I get a pencil?" Your donations matter.

  Finally, the Clorox wipes were used to clean highly used surfaces in the classroom especially their desks. I appreciate that you made a difference in our classroom.”

• STEM Rocks!

  Funded Dec 5, 2022

  The robots brought my students closer together to create cool codes without being in front of a computer screen. The students were able to use Botley robots and programmed them to work through many obstacles. They faces lit up every time they got into groups to use the robots. Your donation helped many students think critically while they learned through play. I was amazed to see how they looked forward to learning in collaboration. Many students struggled to get along before we had these robots but now that brought them together.”

  Thank you for the musical instruments. Many of the students performed using their recorders. The joy and smiles have been priceless. I have noticed that they get ready for their task a little quicker after tackling their instruments. I am also glad to see more motivation in our class. Thanks to your musical contribution, you have touched many students hearts who enjoys sharing the love of playing. They are showing more interest and are more open with each other sharing their life's experiences once again all thanks to you.”

• LEGO Motivates!

  Funded Jan 23, 2020

  My students were amazed when the LEGO's arrived. Their faces lit up with joy as if it were Christmas. I took time to tell them that it was donated and they were happy and surprised, they immediately clapped to show their pleasure.

  When I set up the LEGOs the students were motivated to complete their classwork because they were able to play. I didn't have that enthusiasm before the LEGOs were part of our classroom. They worked and communicated well in teams as they built.

  The students and I are grateful for your generosity.”

• Focused Learners

  Funded Sep 25, 2018

  My students used to struggle to hear when they used the computers in class. They complained about hearing each Other's audio which made it difficult for the students to focus on their task. However, your generous gifts of headphones changed that. They are focus and are able to complete their work faster. The effect was immediate. One by one they tried their headphones and their excitement lit up their faces.

  I am so glad that we have caring donors like you who makes it possible for our students to be focus learners.”

• Technology and Literacy

  Funded Mar 27, 2018

  We are grateful for your generous contribution. Our students were able to use the laptops donated during independent group activity. They were lacking access to the I-ready program however, after we received the laptops they spent more hours working on I-ready which helped them make progress. I saw a minimum of 5 percent growth from last quarters test. I believe with continued use they will make a greater gain.

  The students enjoy working on the laptops because it features touchscreen which is beneficial to tactile learners.

  It gives me great joy to see how the students look forward to take take turn using the laptops. This type of excitement keeps them motivated to do well in the I-ready literacy program. This could only happen because of donors like you.”
