  • Miss C's Calming Corner

    Funded Sep 15, 2022

    Much appreciation to you for your donation to our classroom. I have seen such a difference in my students with the addition to our Calming Corner. My students are even more eager to READ because they can sit in the calming corner on our comfy couch during DEAR time (Drop Everything and Read). This was truly a blessing and it has motivated my colleagues to create calming corners in their own classrooms. Your donation helped to create a safe, nurturing and relaxing space in our room for students to retreat to when feeling overwhelmed. This has brought so much joy not only to myself, but to school administration, board members and most importantly, our students. Thank you so much!”

    Ms. Holt

  • Extraordinary and Safe Workspace

    Funded Feb 9, 2022

    My students and I are so overjoyed by your generous donations. We did not take for granted, the kindness you have shown to our class. In having a school in a low income area, where students are not introduced to a lot of cool and interesting artifacts in the daily home lives, it felt wonderful to add these items to our classroom for their enjoyment. in an instant, opening see the new items, I witnessed a shift in the confidence level of my students; it legit made my heart melt. As a teacher, I am so grateful to you for donating to my project! There are so many things that I desire for my students to have, but with my salary it is not always possible to purchase things like this on my own. So, thank you, thank you, thank you so much for your donation, it brought joy and a greater learning experience to my classroom this school year.”

  • Collaborative and Inclusive Learning

    Funded Dec 22, 2021

    My students and I would like to thank you all for your generous donations. This meant a lot to our class. My students were so surprised and have enjoyed each resource we received. When my students walked in our classroom and saw that they had the comfortable swivel computer chairs they let out a big sound of glee! They were happy and hugging each other. Their excitement filled not only our classroom, but the hallway too lol.

    Theses resources have helped to contribute to our goal of having a calm and relaxing atmosphere in our classroom. We are so appreciative of all that we were able to receive.”

  • Remote Learning for Inner City Children

    Funded Oct 13, 2020

    My students and I would like to thank you for your generous contribution to our class. You have made this difficult time a bit easier because of your donation to us. We have been out of the classroom since March of 2020 and our school board has recently made the decision to stay 100% virtual for the remainder of the year.

    The speaker and headphones that we received has been wonderful in enhancing the learning experience for my students. At first, without those tools it was very difficult for students to hear me, as well as the curriculum videos I had to play for them. The students are so excited to actually hear me clearly now!

    These items have definitely made a difference in the quality of learning that my students received and will continue to receive, as we remain 100% virtual. We appreciate so much and from the bottom of our hearts, we say, thank you.”

    Ms. Holt

  • Miss Holt's Purpose in Pontiac Class

    Funded Sep 25, 2019

    Your contribution to our classroom has impacted our lives in countless ways. We as students are able to focus on our personal online lessons without having to hear background noise from our peers computers. Since a lot of our supplemental resources are on our Chromebooks, having the headphones eliminated the distractions and caused for our standardize test scores to improve.

    The most exciting thing about our new product is the quality. Our school has given us headphones in the past that would not even last a month. These Sony headphones are top notch and we are so blessed to have them.

    All of the students are enjoying our new technology. We even share them with the other classes in the building; and they have taken a liking to them. All around we couldn't be luckier and so very appreciative to you for donating to our class.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Holt

    This classroom project was brought to life by Verizon and one other donor.
It is the goal of our class to have everyone at grade level in math and reading. The headphones will help with their independent computer work. Right now, we don't have headphones for the students and with them all being on Chromebooks at the same time, it gets to be a little loud and distracting. The wireless headphones will help our Cognitive Impaired students when using our class I pad to work on their assignments. Students will utilize Study Island and Compass Learning, that gives them assignments at their level academically, while going to higher levels after successfully completing each assignment.
