  • Safe Halloween!

    Funded Jul 13, 2023

    Thank you so much for such a successful, fun safe Halloween event. With your help, we were truly able to make this a great one. We received so many wonderful donations, candy, snacks, fidget toys, stickers and books! Our scholars truly couldn't believe all the wonderful things we had for them. The best part was the amount of fun they all had coming together and just simply being kids! The look on their faces was absolutely priceless and we couldn't have done it without your help or support.

    Thank you so much for all of your help!”

    Mr. Rocchio

  • Teacher/ Student Fuel!

    Funded Aug 10, 2023

    Thank you so much for your kind donations to my classroom and helping to support our scholars. With your help, we have not only learned to stay organized but have created a safe place to call our own. It has a "home" vibe, that I hope all students love coming to.

    It has made us feel so special that you have decided to donate to our classroom. A simple "thank you" does not feel like enough, because of the difference you have made within our classroom.

    Having this area really has helped to create not only a cafe feel, but a sense of pride and accomplishment.

    From the bottom of our hearts we thank you. This truly helps our classroom run smoothly on a day to day basis and helps to make learning more fun and engaging for all. This will instill a love for learning for years to come.

    It takes a village and I'm so glad you are apart of ours. Thank you!"”

  • Home Sweet Bookshelf!

    Funded Aug 16, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to my classroom and helping keep my scholars organized with a brand new bookshelf. With your help, this bookshelf helps scholars locate books and they are able to use it when working in stations to help keep their materials safe.

    With your help, we were able to do great things and we are so grateful for that. A simple thank you does not feel like enough.

    From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for all of your help and support with our classroom. You are awesome.”

  • Super Stem Scholars Study Seeds!

    Funded Apr 22, 2021

    Thank You so much! My students were ecstatic for the experience of our planting unit!

    Smiles and curiosity were evident throughout the unit. It was so nice to see my students come in the classroom each day eager to see how the plants have grown each day and record it in their science journal.

    After the unit was over, students took home the plants to continue growing at home, it was great!

    This wouldn't have been the success it was without your help, so thank you so much!

    They say it takes a village. Thank you for being a part of ours.”

  • We Rocked the Test!

    Funded Apr 20, 2021

    Thank You so much! My students were ecstatic for the rewards after persevering through a challenging year and then a state test!

    Smiles and confidence were evident throughout the test and I know that knowing about our we rocked the test celebration definitely played a part in that. For many of my students, it was their first time using a pinata.

    This would not have been the success it was without your help, so thank you so much!

  • Rewards Refresher

    Funded Jan 11, 2021

    Thank you so much for your generous donations. My students were ecstatic when they found out about the new rewards they could work towards. They were so happy with the markers, we used them right away for our fraction lessons! Several of them were amazed that they were scented and couldn't wait to take them home so they could use them at their full potential...sniffing through a mask was a little challenge.

    The bookmarks and stickers were super fun for the kids and they look forward to earning more of them for their good work.

    Thank you again.”

My students have been working hard in a hybrid model all year. This project will provide me with materials to refresh my reward box. These items will be used to help teach my students the power of accomplishing and finishing work. Earning rewards is a great way to get students to understand success and feel the joy of doing a great job. Markers, stickers, and other rewards will get my students motivated to work. These items will be used to reward students for working, helping others or showing good character. My students love to color so that will be used as motivation as well with the finished quote coloring pages being displayed as a constant reminder.
