• iPad for Our Classroom!

  Funded May 4, 2022

  Thank you so much for your generosity.

  The iPad has made it possible for me to walk around the classroom effortlessly with a small device that allows me to track my students' progress.

  Having thirty plus students in a room can be difficult to maneuver, especially with middle schoolers.

  The iPad is small enough that I can scoot around while providing valuable feedback to my students.

  We are extremely thankful for the generous gift and thank you for your kindness.

• Freak the Mighty!

  Funded May 12, 2022

  I want to express my sincere thank you for the books "Freak the Mighty". My students loved to read a real life story about bullying. It really hit home for them.

  They were able to make connections and relate to the characters. They couldn't put the book down!

  After reading the book , we watched the movie. They enjoyed comparing and contrasting the text and film.

  Your donation was a success and make a great impact on my class! The class set

  is in good shape and will be reused again and again!

  Thanks again!
