  • Calm N' Learn

    Funded Dec 16, 2024

    In my experience, my students have enjoyed having the iPad station where they can relax and compose themselves. Our discussion of our feelings and emotions has been a great opportunity. I have seen a great improvement in the way my students react to situations on a daily basis. There is something rewarding about knowing that they have a place to go and listen to relaxing sounds and songs. In some cases, they don't need to use the center at all. Using the sounds and songs has allowed some students to adapt their thinking and cope in different ways. The iPad has been helpful in allowing them to unwind so that they can finish off their day with a smile. The students have also become more aware of their emotions and how to manage them effectively. This has led to a more positive and supportive classroom environment, where students feel comfortable expressing themselves and seeking help when needed.”

  • Full and Focused

    Funded Oct 1, 2024

    I appreciate your support for my students so much. They have enjoyed these snacks. Having these snacks at the end of the day has greatly helped my students with their hunger at the end of the day. I greatly appreciate your support. There is a possibility that some of my students will go hungry if they don't get these snacks. They have been able to stay focused and on task because of it. Keeping my students focused is so important to me. Thank you so much. I greatly appreciate your kindness and generosity. Your generosity has made a significant impact on their daily lives, allowing them to concentrate better and participate more actively in class. It's heartwarming to see their enthusiasm and gratitude for the snacks you've provided.

    Thank you very much,

  • Storm Chasers

    Funded Jan 31, 2024

    This letter of appreciation is my way of expressing my deep appreciation for your kindness and willingness to give. The iPads my students are using to study storms are proving to be a great learning tool. Your generosity and support meant a lot to them, showing them they are not alone and that someone cares about them. Having the opportunity to thank you for such a wonderful gesture was a pleasure for me. They have already benefited from your contribution and appreciate you for it. The impact of your generosity will last a lifetime. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness and support.”

  • Healthy Is What Healthy Does!

    Funded Jan 22, 2024

    It is with profound gratitude and appreciation that I submit a letter of appreciation to you for your kindness and willingness to give. This is toward "Healthy is What Wealthy Does!" With the awesome supplies, I was able to supply my students with a bag full of goodies that they could enjoy. Your generosity and support meant a lot to them and showed them that they are not alone and that there are people who care about their well-being. It was my pleasure to thank you for such a wonderful gesture.

    Our end of school year activities are usually highly anticipated and full of fun and excitement. It warms my heart that I can provide them with healthy snacks. This bag of treats made up for a portion of that fun that they wouldn't get otherwise.

    Thank you for your kind and generous donations! We are very appreciative!"”

  • This Is A Cool Pad

    Funded Dec 20, 2023

    So far my students are enjoying having the iPad station that allows them time to unwind and compose themselves. This has been a great opportunity for us to discuss our feelings and emotions. My students have shown a great improvement in their day to day reactions to situations that they face. Knowing that they have a place to go and listen to relaxing sounds and songs have been rewarding. Sometimes they just go about their daily routine without having to use the center. I think that with the use of the sounds and songs that some students have adapted their way of thinking and found other ways to cope. However, it has been nice to have the ipad so that they have the opportunity to go and unwind so that they can finish out the day.”

  • Snacking While We Work!

    Funded Oct 22, 2023

    Thank you so much for supporting my students. These snacks have made their day. Most days, my students don't seem to get enough when eating in the cafeteria, and having these snacks has helped a lot with the end-of-the-day hunger. Your support has been greatly appreciated. Without these snacks, some of my students may go home hungry. It has helped get them to stay on task and to stay focused. Thank you so much for helping my students stay focused. Your kindness and generosity is greatly appreciated.”

  • Coding Is Fun!

    Funded Sep 20, 2023

    I appreciate your kind donation. These resources have made a great difference in the learning environment. My students are enjoying the ipad. It has been a valuable asset to our classroom. It is amazing how these games are getting the students to focus on skills such as writing, drawing, and vocabulary. The games on the Ipad are designed to keep students engaged and focused. I am hoping that we will be able to obtain another one so that more students will be able to enjoy the activities at the same time.

    We appreciate your support in helping us to obtain these resources. Thank you so much to all of us.”

  • My Cozy Corner

    Funded Feb 8, 2023

    I am so grateful for the opportunity to offer my students a cozy area to relax and kick back. My students are enjoying the area and using it as needed. Our area has been in good use and it has helped so many students with days they are not feeling their best. The best part of the area is having the students use it to sit and read a good book. The bean bag has been holding up as students use it often. They like to sit and watch the big screen on movie days or just lay around when they are feeling tired. We are so thankful for having these resources in the classroom to help the students feel comfortable. Thank you from all of us.”
