This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and 2 other donors.Be Positive Stay Positive!
Funded May 25, 2023Thank you for all the support and promoting positive behavior in our school. Your donation has brought a smile to our staff and students. As a fellow teacher I'm sure you know that when good behavior and good teaching come together, our students will excel in learning! Students have been working hard to earn points by demonstrating good behavior, in which they are able to exchange for items such as the ones you purchased for our school. Our PBIS has been extremely successful. So thank you again, much appreciated !”

Help Me Net New Physical Education Units!
Funded Jan 16, 2023Thank you so much for your donation, this equipment has had a great impact on our schools community. With these nets we were able to create a volleyball unit, a sport most of our students have never experienced before. This equipment will not only have an impact on their time at PS 140 but throughout their whole life, since Volleyball is lifetime activity and helps build skills like sportsmanship and teamwork. With the equipment we plan to even expand our units beyond volleyball as we are working on getting pickle ball paddles for our students for next year. Again, thank you so much you have put huge smiles on our students faces.”
