  • Comfortably Journaling to Improve Mental Health

    Funded Aug 12, 2024

    The students have been enjoying their journey using the resources they received. They have been journaling weekly and have been improving on their Socio-emotional skills. Being comfortable has helped them be more willing to journal about their feelings and having specific topics to discuss has helped them increase their thinking and how they react to uneasy feelings. The students behavior has improved because they have learned skills to cope with anger and techniques that will benefit them in controlling their emotions and how they react.”

  • Addressing Basic Needs

    Funded Oct 3, 2023

    The students were very grateful to receive the snacks. It helped many students to keep their focus in class and engage in their learning as they were able to have something in their stomach. Sometimes, the snacks provided was all the food they had all day.

    The deodorant helped students to feel clean, especially after their PE class so they didn't feel embarrassed knowing they smelled good even after putting all their effort in PE and sweating. This helped gain their confidence and allowed them to truly enjoy being in PE.”

  • Creating While Breathing Clean Air

    Funded Jun 26, 2023

    The students have been enjoying the brand new air filters which helps all students, but specially those with asthma problems. They enjoy walking into my classroom knowing they are breathing clean air and they will not have to worry about having problems with their breath. The ink has been helpful as the students have been engaging in colorful project activities and seeing colored pictures brings a smile to their face as well as increases engagement as they bring their creativity to life using colorful pictures.”

  • Beautifying the World

    Funded Oct 11, 2022

    The tablet has helped my students be more engaged as I can provide immediate feedback on their work. I am able to walk around the classroom and take attendance while I'm walking around thus increasing student participation in completing their assignments. The students were excited to use the glue gun as it allowed them the freedom to move around without the limitations of a plugged in glue gun. The scratch off notes allowed them to increase their creativity by adding color to their projects in a unique way. They have been more engaged and are asking about working on more hands-on projects to utilize the remaining materials.”

    Funded Apr 21, 2022

    My students have been excited to see all the items that have been received! They're grateful to have hand sanitizer that doesn't hurt their hands and be able to breathe clean air in the classroom. The poster boards have eased the anxiety of those students who were not able to get poster for their project due to financial constraints. Having extra scissors has helped them become more engaged in completing art projects that enhance their learning as they have the necessary tools to create amazing work.”

  • Breathing Clean Air

    Funded Jul 20, 2021

    My students and I were hesitant to return to the classroom but thanks to the amazing donations we received we feel a little more relaxed. The air purifier has been an excellent addition to our classroom to ensure that while we are in the classroom, the air we breathe is pure and free of contaminants. Having extra masks has also been helpful as sometimes the masks break and students do not have an additional masks so being able to receive a new mask also helps them and other students feel more at ease. The hand sanitizer has helped us ensure that when students enter the classroom everything they might've touched before will be sanitized and will not spread any germs they might've picked.”

  • 21st Century Technology!

    Funded Jul 20, 2021

    The updated laptop has allowed me to be able to provide continuous support and deliver uninterrupted lessons to my students. Having an updated laptop allows me to avoid wasting essential time in class due to slow processing. It has helped tremendously to be able to communicate with my students and the parents to ensure that students are up to date with their assignments. The laptop has also allowed to maximize my time planning lessons for my students as well as be able to create engaging lessons that a fast laptop provides.”

At our school 90% of our student population comes from low-income families. In my classroom, students learn about the Hispanic culture and how to communicate in Spanish. By learning about the Hispanic culture they become a well-rounded student with an open-mind while improving their communication skills, both in writing and speaking. My students come from low-income homes and parents who try to provide their children with the best education possible. However, sometimes they lack materials that will enhance their education. I try to incorporate activities that are real-world based and culturally engaging that will allow them to understand how Spanish is a tool they can use in the real-world. However, sometimes we lack the ability to afford some of the technology needed for my students to practice in a judgement-free environment where they can learn from their mistakes and learn from them.
