  • Let’s Learn the Letters!

    Funded Nov 29, 2023

    The scholars were beyond thrilled to receive hands on materials for learning the alphabet as well as phonics tools! In fact, they jumped right in to learning through play! They explored the new materials with curiosity and an open mind! Using these tools for games became a popular hit to help them learn! They now are able to play games/use the materials on their own and with their peers.

    Looking at them now almost every scholar is naming letters and their sounds. Some are even working on writing each letter.

    Your kindness and generosity has helped grow these students tremendously in their learning and prepare them for kindergarten! Thank you from all of us!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Perkins

  • Calm Down!

    Funded Nov 29, 2023

    Thank you for your generosity! The students were so excited to see all of the materials for the calm down corner! It has help them learn to identify their emotions and work through them using these materials.

    They will even come to me and say they are feeling sad and want to go to the calm down corner or help a friend who is upset use the corner as well.

    This has been a game changer in their social emotional learning. We can not thank you enough for contributing to the mental health of the students!”

  • 100 Days of School

    Funded Feb 10, 2023

    Thank you so much for your support! The student's had a blast on the 100th day of school! Some even dressed as old people for the occasion! Being able to celebrate with hats and bracelets and activities was a way to truly entrain the magic of the day into their hearts and minds.

    We thank you with all of our hearts for your generosity! Without it these students would not have had the fun memories they were able to have this day. Your generosity and kindness are appreciated from the teachers and the student. We thank you!”

  • Help Us Focus!

    Funded Oct 25, 2022

    These treats were able to help the student gain the energy they needed to continue learning throughout the day! They were so excited when I said that we were gifted new snacks! They were excited to choose their own flavor and it was something "new". This also gave them the opportunity to learn how to open these new snacks as well as help each other open them! It was a great way to boost the energy in the room and talk about the foods we eat and the energy and muscles we get from the food! Many students now talk about the different vegetables and fruits that are healthy as opposed to snacks that they should eat after healthy foods for their bellies. We are so grateful for your contribution to the classroom!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Perkins
