  • Let's Get Excited to Read and Write This Year!

    Funded Aug 14, 2024

    I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the generous donors for your incredible support in funding the purchase of books and school supplies. Your contributions are making a meaningful difference in the lives of students who might not otherwise have access to the resources they need to succeed. Thanks to your kindness, students are now better equipped to pursue their education with the tools they need to excel.

    Your donations not only provide essential materials but also send a powerful message of encouragement and care. You've shown these students that their education matters and that there are people who believe in their potential. The impact of your generosity will be felt long after the supplies are used, as it fosters a sense of possibility and ambition. On behalf of the students and staff, we cannot thank you enough for your support—your kindness truly helps to build a brighter future for everyone involved.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Herrera

  • Plant A Seed Help A Teen Love To Read!

    Funded Mar 30, 2023

    Thank you for your generous gift to West Side Academy and my High School English classroom. We are thrilled to have your support. Through your donation we have been able to accomplish our goal of engaging young readers. The Young Adult literature books that were purchased provided my students with the opportunity to discover situations and worlds they would normally not encounter. My students come from a variety of backgrounds. Many of them struggle financially and have endured significant traumas. These new books have allowed us to delve deeper into conversations that assist in their lifelong healing.

    In additional to the healing and exploration the books provided. My students were so excited to actually have brand new books! Many students stated they never felt or had a brand new book before. They felt special to be the first one to open and enjoy the book. Your donation allowed my students to feel valued and seen. Those moments and the smiles on their faces I will forever be grateful for. I love what I do and your donation helped me make a difference in the lives of my students.

    As the year progresses I will continue to use the purchased novels and school supplies to engage and expand my students minds and hearts.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Herrera

    This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community and 3 other donors.
