  • Come Alive Through Books!

    Funded Mar 30, 2023

    Thank you for donating toward our project, "Come Alive Through Books!" My students love to be read to. They love to look at the pictures as myself or one of my paras are reading to them. Even though my students are nonverbal you can see the enjoyment and excitement of being read to come alive in their eyes, smiles and body movement.

    Some of the books that were selected for this project dealt with dealing with emotions and being kind to ourselves and to others. These books have helped my students to explore their emotions in a more positive way.”

  • Swinging Fun for All!

    Funded Apr 15, 2023

    Thank you so much for funding our project "Swinging Fun For All". You have given our students that are unable to play on the playground equipment something to look forward to. They are getting to enjoy recess and have fun and are not having to stay in their wheelchairs and watch the other students. Seeing their faces light up that they get to have fun and enjoy recess time like their peers brings such joy to us as teachers. We are so thankful for generous donations to our projects to help bring that enjoyment to our students. Thanks again so much.”

  • Feed Those Growling Stomachs!

    Funded Nov 30, 2022

    Thank you so much for donating towards our classroom project, "Feed those Growling Stomachs." These resources are being used to help those students that do not send snacks or those that do not have money to purchase a snack.

    The students were so excited to have a variety of snacks to choose from at snack time. Some are enjoying snacks during morning time stations because they keep getting belly aches before lunch.

    By receiving the funds for this project, we are able to feed the students so they are focused on learning. We have several projects in the making for our classroom to be a fun and successful learning environment.

    Thank you again for donating to our project.”

I teach students that are in Special Education. The project will help increase student engagement through correct use of technology in hopes of preparing our youth for future careers. Zwolle Elementary School uses ExactPath, a computer researched based program that accelerates students and/or closes gaps where needed. The student takes a beginning assessment that then determines a prescription for that student. Sabine Parish School System was attacked by a virus days before school started. In the past years, I have had at least 6 student computers. With the virus, I am down to one teacher computer and no student computers. These materials would help my students close in the necessary gaps to accelerate their learning.
