Support Ms. Castaño's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
Thank you for supporting our girls as they learn about themselves and the changes they will experience physically and emotionally as they go through puberty. We used the kits you donated as part of the hygiene kit we supply our girls when we do our " Let's Talk Puberty" lesson.
This experience is not just about learning about puberty but has turned into a bonding moment for our girls where they share fears and insecurities with each other. Through this bonding they realize a lot of them have similar concerns and insecurities and most important they realize they are not alone. They build a supportive system for each other and uplift each other through this experience.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Castaño
