  • Going for the Gold in 2024!

    Funded May 14, 2024

    My class and I continue to be thankful for your generosity. I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation to our classroom through Donors Choose. Your support has truly made a significant impact on our students and their learning experience.

    Thanks to your contribution, we have been able to acquire art supplies , and school supplies that my students possibly could not acquire without your help. These resources are already making a difference in our classroom. The enthusiasm and excitement form the students when they use these materials are simply incredible.

    For example my students love to paint and use glitter. My students are creating amazing projects that showcase their creativity and skills. It is clear that these resources are not just tools but are helping to foster a more engaging and enriching learning environment.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Lucy

  • It's Beginning to Look Alot Like Christmas!

    Funded Oct 21, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generous donations! I loved seeing my students faces when they were working on their Christmas crafts to take home to their families for the holidays.

    My students were thrilled when the supplies arrived to the classroom and were super eager to start. They were able to work on different Christmas crafts which included coloring poinsettias, piñatas, Christmas trees, and ornaments. These crafts were displayed in the hallway outside the classroom to show off my student's beautiful art skills.

    The next step in our Christmas craft project is to have the students decorate and personalize ornaments with the paint brushes and paints that were provided by you, the generous donors.”

    As I am excited to start my 39th year of teaching, I am so appreciative of all the donations we have received this past yea!. My students were so excited to have their own pencil boxes filled with all the supplies they could possibly need. Thanks to your donations, the first day of school was filled with joy and excitement. I like to instill in my students that we are a family and with family nobody gets left behind. Being able to provide my students with everything they need fills my heart with joy. I humbly, thank you for your generosity from the bottom of my heart.”

    Thanks you so much for your generous donations! We have been able to use the materials that we received through your donations to label and decorate the students' classroom materials i.e., pencil boxes ,folders, water bottles, and composition notebooks.

    Students are delighted and proud to use their personalized materials. It has facilitated the identification of items in the classroom. They are able to identify their own names and are excited to have their favorite characters on some of these materials.

    We are planning to continue to teach the students how to use the Cricut and be creative in selecting different fonts and colors. Your donations have opened their eyes to the many possibilities. Thank you for your continued support and know that you have made a difference in the life of these special students.”

  • Gifts from the Heart

    Funded Dec 8, 2022

    Thank you so much for your generous donations. My students had so much fun creating their Valentine art work. It was so nice to have all the supplies we needed at the tip of our fingers. The students were able to make valentine bags and labels. They enjoyed watching the laminating process and were excited to see the finish product. Parents enjoyed seeing how excited and animated their children were to be able to share their creations and enjoyed listening to how they talked about their classmates projects. Donors Choose has been a game changer for me and my students.”

  • Living In An Inclusive World!

    Funded Jun 3, 2022

    Thanks to your generosity my students all have access to headphones! Some of my students experience sensory issues and the headphones help to block out noise. My student's also use the headphones to work on their comp books without anyone distracting them. Students no longer feel sad if they don't have their personal headphones since most of my class is using the classroom set purchased through your generosity which has evened out student's playing fields . All my students have access to crayons and glue sticks at all times. The art supplies helps my students use their creativity to be so creative. Thank you so much for all you do for our Benavides students.”
