  • The Best End of Year Gifts Ever!

    Funded Feb 3, 2025

    Thank you for helping us fund our end of the year project! We are excited to share these items with our students on the last day of school to encourage continued learning throughout the summer, as well as other items such as sunglasses and bubbles that help encourage outdoor play. We are able to add some learning resources such as alphabet, shape, number, and color cards to their bags to continue working on those items. They will also receive coloring pages and crayons and a memory book of pictures to remember the school year by! Thank you again for your support in making this happen!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Tuesley

  • A Calming Space

    Funded Jan 24, 2025

    Thank you for helping us creative a calm space where our students can comfortably go to help calm their bodies or take a break a break. The beanbag is oversized and comfortable and gives just enough pressure to give a nice hug, and the rug ties everything together! The students love being able to go to the library to look at books, and read stories to the stuffed animals in the new updated welcoming space! Our students love to read and look at books, but without an inviting looking area, the library was often the last place our students would go! They love it now!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Tuesley

  • Let's Be Creative with Construction Paper!

    Funded Jan 9, 2025

    Thank you so much for funding our construction paper project! The amount of paper and variety of colors that we have received have really helped expand the creativity of each child in our class. The students are able to make letter of the week crafts as well as use their imagination to create projects on their own during free choice time. The storage shelf is great and helps to be able to easily find and pull out the individual colors of paper that we need, including at the kids height to allow them to grab what they need as well. Thank you for helping increase their artistic talent!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Tuesley

  • Who Is Here Today?

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    Thank you for helping fund our who is here today project! Not only do the students get to take initiative by moving their pictures from home to school and home to school, but they can quickly glance at the board to see who is not at school today. We are able to help our counting skills and number recognition by counting the students who are absent and present as well.

    The board is perfect size including magnetic and a whiteboard which helps us be able to write the number next to the students for the other classmates to identify the number. Thanks for helping create this simple, fun, and interactive learning tool!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Tuesley

  • For the Cold, Wet Days!

    Funded Nov 21, 2024

    Thank you for helping fund our cold, wet days project! We have been blessed (or maybe not) depending on how you think of snow, here in Michigan these last couple of weeks and the students all love going onside and playing in it. The waterproof gloves keep their hands warm and dry while they make snowballs or towers, the extra snow pants come in handy when someone forgets their pair at home, and the extra clothes are much needed when socks and pants get a little to wet from all the extra play.

    We appreciate the support especially towards something as fun as going out and playing in the snow, knowing our students will be dry, warm, and protected from the elements. Thank you for making outdoor play fun!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Tuesley

My student's families will really benefit if they are able to receive these cleaning supplies. The laundry soap will enable them to have clean clothes to wear, the dish soap will provide them the means to have clean dishes to eat on, and the household cleaning supplies will aid them in cleaning their homes and help keep them healthy! There are many benefits of having clean clothes, clean dishes and a clean home; less stress, more active, more productive, sleeping better, and sick less frequently! This past year has been challenging and my student's families could really use the items in this project to keep them safe and healthy!
