    I wanted to take a moment to share how my students and I are utilizing the excellent new resources you helped provide.

    Our students have been incredibly excited about the monthly Junior Scholastic subscription. They look forward to each issue, which is full of current events and social studies texts. The subscription has been a welcome addition to the curriculum.

    When the materials first arrived, the students' eyes lit up with excitement. They couldn't wait to celebrate the next classmate's birthday with the birthday chair covers. They were appreciative of the basic school supplies, like composition books and tissues, which have been essential for their daily work.

    Thank you again for your generous support. Your contributions have made a real difference in our classroom.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. McElhenny

  • Make History Come Alive in the Classroom!

    Funded Mar 29, 2023

    I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your generous donation of books, tissues, hand sanitizer, colored pencils, baskets, and more to my classroom. Your kindness and generosity have made a real difference in the lives of my students.

    The graphic history books you donated have been a huge hit with the students. They are so excited to have a wider variety of books to choose from, and they are eager to read new stories with compelling graphics. The tissues and hand sanitizer have also been very much appreciated, especially during the cold and flu season. The colored pencils have been a great addition to our art supplies, and the students have enjoyed using them to create colorful drawings and paintings. The baskets have also been useful for storing supplies and organizing our classrooms.

    Your donation has helped our students in many ways. The books have helped them to develop a love of reading and to improve their literacy skills. The tissues and hand sanitizer have helped to keep our students healthy and safe. The colored pencils have helped them to express their creativity and to develop their artistic skills. And the baskets have helped us to keep our classrooms organized and tidy.

    I am so grateful for your support of our school and our students. Your generosity has made a real difference in our school year.

    Thank you again for everything.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. McElhenny
