  • New Laptops for 2025!

    Funded Jan 15, 2025

    Thank you so much for your kind donation. You have truly made a difference in our classroom. These new laptops have helped create consistent routines in my classroom, something in which the students thrive on. Additionally, they have allowed me to create daily interactive lessons for my students, which also benefits my diverse learners.

    One student shared "these laptops are so much faster then our old ones!" Another student was excited all of the keys work regularly!

    These laptops have also helped my students with a sense of responsibility and ownership. In the morning students are responsible for coming into the classroom, taking out the chargers and plugging them in. At the end of the day the students are responsible for shutting down the computers, collecting the chargers and putting them away. This process has truly enhanced their executive functioning skills.

    Thank you again, we appreciate all of your support!”

  • New Chairs!

    Funded Feb 5, 2025

    Thank you so much for helping my classroom! The students were ecstatic to see that we had new chairs! Due to kind donors like you, my students now have a flexible seating arrangement that best meets their needs. They are frequently used throughout the day providing a safe calming space for them to utilize as needed.

    They were excited to immediately sit and learn in them. One student shared "I love the fact that I don't go so low in it anymore!" Another student shared that "These are much bouncier!"

    Again, thank you for believing in my classroom and helping my students!”

  • Dock Street Cheer Squad

    Funded Feb 4, 2023

    Thank you so much! Last year we were a new cheerleading team focusing on a new style of cheerleading. While we hoped for mats, we ended up with something even better! Cheerleading Uniforms! These uniforms have made the girls truly feel like they are a member of a team and a true squad. They enjoy wearing their jackets and bows to school everyday.

    The girls had their first performance last week, and cheered at their first home game today wearing them. They are excited to continue to wear the uniforms throughout the season.

    Thank you again for your support and believing in us!”

  • Storage Space

    Funded Sep 6, 2023

    Thank you so much for your kind donations!

    These filing cabinets have truly made a difference in our classroom. Not only have they given us extra storage space, they have given students a place to go and reflect on how they are feeling as well as provide reminders.

    The students enjoy organizing the material inside and have began to foster their independence by going into the filing cabinets to obtain whatever supplies they need!

    Thank you again for supporting my classroom and my students. I truly appreciate it!”

  • Flipping Into the Future Part 2

    Funded Jan 27, 2023

    Thank you so much for your support! You have truly helped make a difference in our cheerleading program! When practice begins the students are excited to run and set up the mat! They love this piece of tumbling equipment so much, they even gave it a name! We have been working handstands, bridges, backwalkovrs, front walkovers and even backhandsprings! We have had several of our athletes even perform some of these skills by themselves! They are excited to continue to use these resources for many seasons to come! Thank you again!”

  • New Year, New Chairs

    Funded Sep 20, 2022

    Thank you so incredibly much for your kind donation! My students were so excited when these new chairs arrived! They can be found sitting in them all day, everyday! They love to complete their school work in these chairs with their laptops, as well as spend choice time on them. One student shared that he enjoys sitting on the chairs because he finds it relaxing. Another student shared that he likes the chairs because they are super fun to bounce on. Additionally, a student shared that doing little bounces on the chairs helps him stay focused on his work!

    Thank you again, not only have you made a difference in the lives of my students this year, but also my students for future years to come!”

  • A Way To Charge!

    Funded May 9, 2022

    Thank you so much for your kind donations! You have truly made a difference in our classroom. Upon delivery our students were so excited to have the ability to charge their own laptops! Last year my students truly benefited from having ownership of their laptops and ensuring they are charged daily. Your act of kindness not only impacted my students last year, but continued to impact in my classroom. My current students this year now have the same opportunity to take control of their own laptop and ensuring they are prepared daily. I am excited for all of my future students to have this experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

    Ms. Babbin

These laptops will make a huge difference in my classroom! Utilizing technology in the classroom will help my students develop life long skills as learners and future employees. During the pandemic, students relied upon technology to obtain daily instruction. It is crucial that we continue to provide them access this technology in the classroom. Currently, we have extremely limited access to laptops, which makes both learning and teaching difficult. My students love to learn and they love technology! My class this year contains 8 students in the 8th grade who all are on the Autism Spectrum. They learn best through utilizing multi modalities, which includes using a computer to grasp information. Through the use of daily laptops, students will have access to Powerpoints, videos, presentations and more interactive materials to learn the curriculum. These computers will be a huge asset to my classroom, by allowing me to create daily lessons which are interactive, meaningful and appropriate for my students. Laptops will be used daily to help my students grow academically, socially and emotionally. By donating to our project, you will be greatly making a difference in the ASD program at our school, and in the students lives!
