  • Inspiration and Exploration in Color!

    Funded Dec 19, 2021

    With tremendous gratitude and appreciation, I submit this impact letter to you. Your generosity and willingness to give to underprivileged students in a high-need school district do not go unnoticed. I cannot thank you enough for the joy you injected into our learning by graciously funding our project, "Inspiration and Exploration in Color!"

    Your willingness to give allowed us to purchase a color printer for use in our daily instruction. To many, that might not seem like a lot, but the joy that comes from being able to learn about outer space in color or to really see the details of an animal means the world to the curious third-graders sitting in my classroom.

    I cannot thank you enough. Your funding has helped me provide engaging materials to all my students. Each one of our units of study was brought to life with colorful resources. Each bulletin board was brought to life with beautiful and colorful student work proudly displayed because of your generosity. Thank you for making a difference in our learning!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Quinones

  • Spark Joy: Reading Nook in Need of Books!

    Funded Mar 18, 2019

    We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you! Your generous donation has allowed us to continue to get lost in books that bring to life truly enjoyable characters. During our Character Studies reading unit, we delved deep into these books to learn all about character traits, motivations, and change.

    Through the use of these books, my students' conversations were rich, deep, and thoughtful. It was a great pleasure to see my English Language Learners engaged in lively discussions around characters that not only lured us into books, but also kept us wanting more time with them!

    Your donation allowed us to go on an intellectual journey right alongside many amazing characters!”

With these new books, my dual language students will be able to read a variety of high-interest books that will brighten their days and nurture their love of reading! These books will give my students an added reason to get right into reading and an extra opportunity for deep and meaningful conversations around books that they love! This is the culture that I hope to continue fostering in my classroom with the help of these new books. Nothing can ever replace the wonder of getting lost in a book, thumbing through pages, and hanging on to the author's every word. I grew up in the very same neighborhood as my students, and I know firsthand how important and life-changing a simple book can be. My love of reading helped open up worlds that went way beyond the block I lived on. I would love to offer that same experience to all my students!
