  • Calming Space

    Funded Mar 18, 2025

    Thank you so much for funding the calming space project for our students! They are going to love painting the canvases and seeing their art work showcased!

    The students will also love using the magnetic tiles to build and create! We also are looking forward to making the students laugh with the joke book!

    We appreciate your generosity!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Alden

  • Gaming Zones

    Funded Dec 10, 2024

    Thank you so much for donating to the Gaming Zones project! Our students have loved playing Pac-Man and having fun at school. We have one Pac-Man game on the 1st floor and one Pac-Man game on the 2nd floor.

    Students use them as a reward for good behaviors and also to help students de-escalate who are having a hard time calming down. The Pac-Man game is perfect for students to play because the games are short but are highly engaging and fun for kids.

    It is great to see the smile on our students faces when they get to the next level!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Alden

  • Creative Art and Nature Space

    Funded Mar 3, 2025

    Thank you so much Donor's Choose for the gift card you gave Kennedy Crossan Elementary School. We have been able to do so much for our business club, enhancing our spaces to be more creative, and making our climate fun and nature-centered.

    We look forward to using our new resources in this order!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Alden

  • Workbench

    Funded Oct 1, 2024

    The workbench has created an excellent space for students to be creative, work on projects, as well as a spot to place the cricut machine. Chairs fit under the workbench so two students can sit and work on projects.

    The workbench also has wheels and provides a flexible work place for students. We have rolled the workbench out to the middle of the room so several students can stand and work on projects as well. This flexibility provides a movable workspace whenever needed and has already been used several times for student projects and play time.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Alden

  • Benches and Wheel

    Funded Sep 21, 2024

    The workbench and prize wheel are used all the time by our students! The workbench is used as a table for the Cricut machine and for other crafts and projects students have been working on. For example, we had a candy gram fundraiser for the holidays and students were in charge of running it. They used the workbench to make the candy grams and send them out to students.

    The prize wheel is used every Friday for our "Crossan Chances" program. Students are given a "Crossan Chance" for showing good behavior or being on task in class. Student names are picked from a hat at the end of each week and they can spin the prize wheel for prizes. This helps to reinforce the good behaviors we are seeing.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Alden

  • Business Club and Creative Space

    Funded Nov 18, 2024

    Thank you so much to Donor's Choose for the generous donation to Crossan Elementary school! We are so excited to see the business ideas, creativity, engineering, and designing that will come from the products.

    Our students will benefit greatly from the what the business club can offer them and which they will be able to carry with them into adulthood.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Alden
