  • Let's GLOW! An Art Celebration!

    Funded Mar 30, 2024

    After returning to the building following a relaxing summer vacation, I am still in awe of the support that I received for this project. What began as an idea one weekend became a beautiful learning experience for all students across all grade levels. Our glow paint party has now become a yearly tradition that I'm excited to implement this year as well.

    Thank you so much for supporting our art program at WCES. To see the joy on the students' faces made it all worth it. I wish you could've been there to see that! I am beyond thankful for you and your donation no matter how small. I can't wait to create more engaging lessons for our art program.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Hicks

  • Let's Read About It!

    Funded May 28, 2020

    I can't thank you enough for your loving support and kindness! My project has been officially funded and I can't wait to read these books with my new students. Together, we will learn all about kindness, courage, empathy, respect, perseverance, gratitude, honesty, responsibility, cooperation, and creativity through literature. Your donation means the world to me. Thank you so so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Hicks

    This classroom project was brought to life by The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and 8 other donors.
The 45 children's books in this project have been carefully chosen to support social-emotional learning in our classroom. Every month we will focus on a character trait during our Morning Meetings and closing circles. The 10 character traits include kindness, courage, respect, responsibility, creativity, perseverance, cooperation, gratitude, honesty, and empathy. Each month, students will be engaged in interactive read-alouds that support the character trait of the month. We will begin with courage and move towards kindness. I am excited to implement this project in my new classroom and I am confident that these books will help my students grow!
