  • Flexible Seating for Flexible Learning!

    Funded Mar 27, 2018

    I cannot express my gratitude for this donation towards flexible seating in my classroom! My students and I have been working towards this goal all year and are so excited to bring it to life. This will allow my students the flexibility and comfort to find a successful, comfy spot in the classroom, as well as collaborate with their peers.

    Again, thank you SO much for the generous donation. 30 fifth graders are going to be very happy Monday morning!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Olshenske

I am a 5th grade reading teacher within the Pittsburgh Public School District and have the pleasure of teaching the most amazing 5th graders I have ever met! They are bright, curious, kind, and most importantly have a zest for learning like I have never seen. My goal this year is to provide them with every learning opportunity possible, and open up their minds to the joys and adventures reading can take you on.
