  • Outdoor Education: Storage Shed

    Funded Apr 23, 2025

    Thank you! Your support of this really unique and interesting project is so appreciated. My students are so grateful for this new storage shed that you provided to help us continue to grow our outdoor classroom program. The impacts of these kind of important projects, especially for kids with high needs, are tremendous in our community! I am so grateful for your support as we have begun the final construction on our butterfly garden that will soon be home to many native butterfly species. We will need so much soil!

    We are really looking forward to continuing this school year in the most positive way possible. Our students and staff experienced a difficult school year last year due to teacher shortages and learning loss from the pandemic. Creating a classroom environment that is positive, supportive, respectful, and engaging is tantamount to a successful fall. We couldn't do it without the support of the Donorschoose community.

    Please consider our class for the future. Right now we are requesting a few very important things for our classroom. The most important project posted is for a new laptop to support our Social Media and Broadcasting club - this is something we are desperately in need of at the moment. We are also seeking materials for PBL projects that we have upcoming. Our future project requests include items like printers and technology for our Social Media and Broadcasting club, larger hydroponic gardens, mindfulness items, books, and basic needs. We are so grateful for your support!”

  • Spring Cleaning

    Funded Apr 30, 2025

    Thank you so much for providing us with brooms for our outdoor and indoor classroom - this is going to make a huge difference in what we can do in our outdoor learning environment! Our school really benefits from these items as they are not budgeted for and we are working hard to make sure our kids have the best education this year.

    The work that this website does is so important, especially for students in urban inner city environments. These kids need people like you and we are so grateful for Donorschoose and for all that you contribute. Our class effort to provide for our students is ongoing. We know that without this website, we wouldn't be able to do so much for our kids.

    Right now, we have a few live projects that we are hoping to see come to life. The most important one is for a new laptop for our Social Media and Broadcasting Club. We are also hoping to fund a couple projects that support our PBL projects - urban farming, shark tank, sustainable cities, and the great hydrofracking debate. We also have projects upcoming for to support our indoor and outdoor sustainability efforts including some more hydroponic gardens, technology, outdoor classroom equipment, and basic needs for class. Please consider our classroom in the future!”

My students work diligently to create a more sustainable environment within our high school. Using a program called Eco-School, we perform rigorous sustainability audits of our school. To combat the issues we find, my Eco-School kids will grow hydroponic produce in class to support healthy lifestyles and more eco-friendly habits. They will use rainwater collection systems to purify their water. They will compost, create healthy eating initiatives, learn outdoors, and much, much more. To do this, we use a Project-Based learning teaching method. They develop leadership and public speaking skills, explore their ecological footprints, and drive their own learning. Their knowledge of their personal environmental impact has increased substantially. Supporting our classroom supports a fully student-led, student-driven environmental goal that will help to foster future generations of environmentally conscious citizens.
