• The Library: Gateway to the World!

  Funded Oct 4, 2022

  We are so grateful for your generosity that made this project possible. The students love reading, so having a cozy library space has been thoroughly enjoyed. There is nothing better than curling up with a good book under the glow of a lamp!

  Having a diverse selection of books is important for so many reasons. I want my students to see themselves in the books we read, and now they do! Having culturally diverse literature allows for students to learn about people across the globe, not just the community they are part of. Having that cultural awareness will serve them well as they learn to be citizens of the world.

  We are finding the Children of the World series of books especially useful right now as students are doing continent research. Seeing how other children around the world are very similar to them helps connect them in a way they have not previously imagined.”

• Office Supplies and Desks, Oh My!

  Funded Nov 30, 2022

  We are so grateful for your generosity that made this project possible. The students love having their own selection of office supplies at the ready, which has aided in their independence tremendously. It may seem silly, but they were absolutely tickled to have their own stapler!

  The additional work space provided by the floor desks has been invaluable. In our Montessori classroom, we love the flexibility of choosing where to sit and these desks aide in that effort. It offers choice and versatility that the students truly enjoy.

  As the pictures show, students have also enjoyed having the colored tape and flexible measuring tape for spontaneous measuring projects. They took to measuring all of their classmates' height and creating a chart by the doorway. Not being hindered by lack of resources has allowed their creativity to soar!”
