  • Preparing For The First Day of School

    Funded Aug 1, 2024

    Thank you for providing us with the essentials to keep our classrooms stocked with the necessary supplies that help maintain cleanliness and hygiene. Classrooms, especially those filled with young students, tend to get messy very quickly, and as teachers, we are constantly engaged in cleaning to ensure that the space remains safe and welcoming. The high turnover of supplies, from tissues to disinfectant wipes, means that we often find ourselves running low on materials. Your support has been invaluable in ensuring that we can consistently restock these items, allowing us to focus more on teaching and less on worrying about supply shortages.

    The constant use of materials for cleaning, sanitizing, and organizing is crucial in preventing the spread of illness. Germs are everywhere, and with the nature of a classroom, they can accumulate rapidly, especially when dealing with younger children who are still developing hygiene habits. Young students are more likely to touch surfaces and put their hands in their mouths, which makes it easier for viruses and bacteria to spread. This is why having a steady supply of cleaning and sanitizing products is so important in maintaining a healthy environment. By having these tools at hand, we can effectively address any mess or contamination before it spreads to others.

    Hand sanitizer, in particular, plays a critical role in preventing the spread of germs, especially with illnesses like the flu, COVID-19, and hand, foot, and mouth disease. It is essential for quickly killing harmful bacteria and viruses, especially when handwashing isn't immediately possible. By ensuring that our classrooms are equipped with sufficient hand sanitizers and other cleaning products, we can minimize the risk of illness and create a safer, healthier learning space for both students and staff. With your help, we can continue to focus on providing the best possible education while maintaining a clean and hygienic classroom environment.”

  • Enhancing Our Classroom for Discovery and Creativity

    Funded Dec 3, 2024

    Thank you so much for the opportunity you have given our students! I can't wait to share with you the creations they make with the easel. This will help them expand their imagination, which is a very important skill needed in life. The rug will help define a space where creativity also takes place. Our students will be able to build on the floor if they wish and be more comfortable when playing. Thank you again for all your donations and making this happen!”

  • Time to Discover and Expand Their Minds!

    Funded Jan 27, 2023

    Thank you so much for your donations. We appreciate you helping us in giving our students the opportunity to explore new concepts and ideas. With the new science kits we were able to set them out in our discovery area and have them explore different science. When our students saw the new puzzles, several got started right away to explore them. They become excited. We will continue to use them in our discovery area for them to utilize and expand their knowledge. Thank you again for your donations.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Aileen
