  • The Gaming Panthers!

    Funded Mar 4, 2024

    Thank you all so much for your support! Thanks to you all, our esports team was able to have a successful first season! We made it to the finals but unfortunately lost. This would not have been possible without your support.

    The TVs allowed us to play the games on a bigger screen with allowed the students to be more successful in their matches. The chairs allowed us to comfortably play our matches and make the room really feel like it was our space for gaming.

    Once again thank you so much from the gaming panthers!”

  • Starting Off Strong!

    Funded Jul 28, 2023

    Thank you for purchasing these supplies to help me start the school year off strong. These materials have allowed me to create a warm and welcoming classroom for my students. I aim to ensure that all my students feel welcomed within my room and that my classroom is a place where they belong and can be successful.

    These supplies have allowed my students to work successfully in flexible seating by using clipboards and dry-erase boards as different modalities for learning. The decorations allowed me to ensure that my classroom was bright and welcoming.”

  • What Are We Plotting...?

    Funded Aug 2, 2023

    Thank you so much for purchasing these calculators for my classrooms. These calculators have allowed my students to explore the world of exponential and quadratic functions by looking at their graphs. These calculators have also helped my students who are below grade level and lacking math fluency access the grade-level content that is being taught.

    My students and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping to ensure our math classroom is running smoothly this school year.

    GO PANTHERS!”

  • Time to Operate

    Funded May 8, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to my project 'Time to Operate'! This project allowed me to provide enough calculators to all the students in my classroom. Calculators are essential in our class as my students tend to have gaps in their math abilities. These calculators helped students to compute difficult math problems as well as check their mental math work. Having calculators in our classroom helps to boost my students' confidence in themselves and their ability to be successful in math! We all thank you so much!”

  • It's Store Time!

    Funded May 12, 2023

    Thank you so much for donating to "It's Store Time"! Your donation allowed me to continue running my classroom economy system, which helped incentivize my students to be an active part of our classroom. I also used the snacks in this project to run an 'iReady Bucks' store. This store was used as a reward system for students who completed lessons on iReady and were working on closing the gaps in their math skills. Being able to run both of these systems in my classroom would have been impossible without the support of donors like you! THANK YOU!”

  • Let's Have Options!

    Funded Dec 11, 2022

    Thank you for donating to my project "Let's Have Options!". The resources in this project allowed my students to have flexible seating within our classroom. The standing desk was key for students who were either struggling to stay awake in class or those who were getting restless in their seats and felt they needed to stand up to get out some energy. The bean bag was also a great addition to the classroom as it provided a comfortable seating option for students when they were doing independent and group work during class.”

At this time, my school is unable to provide projectors to all their teachers. As a math teacher, being able to project on a PowerPoint on the screen for my students is crucial. In addition, the printers at my school often break down due to excessive use during the day. Having a printer will allow me to ensure that my students have deliverables during class and are able to have work to follow along and notes to take during class. I want my kids to be successful and these are two crucial things for that.
