  • Technology to Provide Efficient and Effective Instruction to Diverse Learners

    Funded Jan 5, 2021

    The technology helped my students through remote and hybrid learning tremendously. Students were able to better understand Geometric concepts due to the many features, such as the high quality audio and video along with flexibility to become a tablet with a stylus to help me quickly give my students meaningful feedback on their work. The laptop has allowed me to quickly model examples of diagrams, which many of my students with disabilities benefit from, by simply sharing my screen; giving students the ability to watch me write directly on the document. Having this touchscreen laptop made remote teaching more practical for my special education students by seeing me writing instead of typing. Typing out math work, especially symbols, is very difficult and time consuming. It is also very difficult for students with limited access to a computer and with disabilities to learn how where to find mathematical symbols in google docs, slides, etc. Overall, it provided a more efficient mathematical experience for my students and we appreciate your generosity. Thank you!”

    With gratitude,

  • Cheer Team = 12 Pairs of Pom Poms = COMPLETE!

    Funded Jan 25, 2018

    I would like to sincerely thank everyone that donated to our second campaign. Thanks to you, the team was able to get pom poms for every single member of the team! These pom poms have been used for cheering at sports events all year around and the players of the sports teams love the support.

    The girls love the pom poms and get so excited every single time we take them out. One of the most important aspects of cheerleading is team work and being able to look like a team makes them feel like a team and truly work hard together.

    Thank you again for your donations and support. It means a lot to my students and I. You are positively effecting my students lives, and we truly appreciate it.”

  • First-Time High School Cheerleaders Need Pom Poms!

    Funded Dec 12, 2017

    I would like to sincerely thank everyone that donated to our campaign. Thanks to you, the team was able to get pom poms! These pom poms will be used when cheering at sports events, pep rallies, talent shows, showcases and hopefully during cheerleading competitions! We are still a brand new team and any help means a lot to us!

    Each piece of equipment makes my students feel more like a team , and makes them push themselves to excel even more. Being able to witness the joy on my students faces when they received their pom poms was truly heartwarming. The first time the girls used the pom poms to cheer at a basketball game their moves were tighter, their voices were louder, and their smiles were even brighter. One of the most important aspects of cheerleading is team work and being able to look like a team makes them feel like a team. Our next goal is to hopefully get actual cheerleading uniforms for them. I can only imagine how happy that would make my students.

    My students have been working very hard since October and have improved tremendously. I am so proud of them and all they have already accomplished. My students continue to amaze me everyday and I can't wait to see how great they will be in the future. Thank you all so much very your donations and support. It means a lot to my students and I. You are positively effecting my students lives, and we truly appreciate it. Thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Samuels

As a brand new team, pom poms will allow the girls to finally feel like an actual cheerleading team. Due to no funding, the girls' families had to come out of their own pockets for practice gear but we still do not have the essentials of a cheer team (uniforms, sneakers, or pom poms). With pom poms, they will be able to perform their cheers with more enthusiasm and excitement. Pom poms will help with their image as cheerleaders, performances at games, fundraising events, and future pep rallies. Pom poms always make motions sharper and more exciting. The girls will be able to add emphasis to their cheers and dances, while attracting the attention of the fans and the opposing team. If my girls were given pom poms, they would rock the sidelines and demonstrate amazing spirit.
