• Cheer Team Gear

  Funded May 8, 2024

  Thank you for helping our 24-25 keller elementary cheerleading team prepare for the upcoming season. With your support, we were able to purchase bows, socks, headbands, and 20 sets of pompoms to begin the new year. Over the summer the team attended their annual summer camp and earned Best elementary band chant, best elementary cheer overall, and one of our girls secured the jump queen title for our division. Within the upcoming weeks the team will get to show off their seasonal bows, socks, and more! Thank you for helping us make this possible.”

• Ms. Ortiz's Second-Grade Class

  Funded Jan 31, 2024

  Thank you so much for your generous donations! Our classroom was ecstatic to receive brand new headphones, dry erase markers, and dry erase boards to tackle our toughest standard. The students are able to work independently during iReady time and focus on their own screen without worrying about not having the right tools. The best part... my second grade class was able to conquer subtraction with regrouping up to the three-digits! The dry erase boards from Lakeshore helped my students show their work and learn through hands on experiences. They averaged an 88% on their subtraction assessment with an incredible six perfect scores. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping me make sure my students enjoy learning.”

  Thank you so much for supporting the Keller Elementary cheerleading team! With your donations we have been able to purchase cheer bows for our breast cancer awareness parade, red ribbon week performances, Veterans Day parade, and our Christmas parade. Additionally, we purchased the additional poms needed to complete our team set. We are beyond grateful to have been able to provide the team with these details that make them look uniformed and amazing. We hope you have enjoyed their performances so far and look forward to the rest of the season!”

• Cheerleading Parades

  Funded Oct 28, 2022

  Thank you so much for your ongoing support for our Keller Elementary Grizzly Cheerleaders. This project provided our cheer team with two sets of brand new bows and socks for our first parade and community event. Having items like these donated to our team are a huge help for our families and allows us to do more with our funds. We utilized these bows during the local Veteran's parade on Southmost Rd. The cheerleaders shined with their new bows that fit the theme of their song, The Great Defenders.”

• Grizzlies Have Spirit!

  Funded Sep 10, 2022

  The girls absolutely love their bows, bags, and pompoms! They have gotten so many compliments on their poms everywhere we go. They have made great use of them during school and community events like the veterans and Christmas parade, the Christmas tree lighting, and their red ribbon week performances. They are now preparing for their next events, the winter carnival and their big competition in February! Thank you for funding this project and helping the team build up, we are looking forward to the year ahead of us.”
