    Thank you so much for your generosity towards me and my students. I am incredibly grateful you chose to fund my project! I’m excited to share the results of your funding this year as I watch my students use the items you have graciously provided for us. I know they will be so excited and I can’t wait to share with them!”

    Funded Aug 16, 2023

    Thank you for blessing me and my students with this incredible donation. Your generosity will change the way my students learn every single day! You have no idea how much this means to me and my students. We are so excited to receive our new materials and get to work learning new concepts!”

  • Let's Do Science!

    Funded Nov 5, 2022

    This funding helped me finish my classroom seating and change how science works at my school. This was so much fun for me to implement and the impact on the students is priceless. They are so excited to come into my classroom and sit on their "amazing" seats! I am incredibly thankful to everyone who made this possible for me and my students. I cannot wait to see how this years students use the new equipment! They are all so excited to get started on experiments and utilize the tables and chairs we have gained because of this incredible donation. Once again, thank you all so much for your generosity!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Holkum

  • What Is Cooler Than Sitting on the Floor?

    Funded Feb 9, 2022

    This alternative seating has quite literally changed my students lives. It has been so much fun to watch them grow in their responsibility and creativity. They were so excited when everything came in! It's helped their ability to focus and stay on task. I cannot thank you enough for this opportunity for them and myself. Implementing this has made me excited as well. My classroom feels like home to my students and that's exactly how it should be. It's inviting and comfortable and they're able to have a choice of their seating.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Holkum

    This classroom project was brought to life by Oklahoma State Department of Education.
With your help I will be able to cross off one of the biggest things I have been trying to provide since day 1 of my teaching career. Alternative seating is a major key towards investing in what students need currently with the fast paced environment they have been growing up in. Technology surrounds them and it is at their fingertips constantly so being able to stay up with them and provide them the ability to move while they work, is something that I believe is a step in the right direction for their success. During our Physical Science until we get to complete several experiments. In these experiments students are often up and around the room surveying different stations and taking notes. This is teaching them to be able to make observations and read graphs/charts and tables. With movable seating and lap desks it will be much easier for my students to complete lab reports and for me to set up experiment stations. As a science team one of our standard goals is for the students to be able to correctly write up a lab report.
