Creating a Safe Haven: Mental Health Corner
Funded Aug 12, 2024I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation to create a mental health corner in my classroom at Callaway High School in Jackson, MS. Your support has provided us with LED lights, a projector, snacks, motivational mental health blocks, string lights, and colorful stools, all of which have made a significant impact on our students' well-being and learning experience.
At Callaway High School, we strive to create an environment where our students feel supported and empowered to achieve their best. The mental health corner you helped fund is a vital part of this mission, offering a safe and calming space for students to relax, reflect, and recharge.
The technology you provided is helping our students learn in several ways. The LED lights and projector create an engaging and dynamic learning environment, making lessons more interactive and visually stimulating. This has been particularly beneficial for visual learners who thrive on seeing concepts come to life. It also creates a calm relaxing environment for students to learn.
The new products have been incredibly exciting for our students. They are especially thrilled with the projector, which allows us to display educational videos, interactive lessons, and calming visuals during mindfulness sessions. The motivational blocks and stools have also been a hit, providing comfortable seating and inspiring messages that encourage positive thinking and resilience.
There are a few students who have particularly warmed to this new technology. One student, in particular, has found the projector to be a game-changer for his learning. He often struggles with traditional reading materials but has shown remarkable improvement in comprehension and engagement when lessons are presented visually. Another student has found the mental health corner to be a sanctuary where she can take a break and refocus, which has significantly improved her overall classroom participation and performance.
Your support has truly made a difference, and I appreciate each and every donor who has contributed to our classroom. Thank you for being a part of our village and for helping us provide a rich and engaging learning experience for our students.”

Let's Get It Started
Funded Aug 2, 2024I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation to my classroom at Callaway High School in Jackson, MS. Your support means the world to us and has made a significant impact on our students' learning experience.
At Callaway High School, our motto is "The Only Way," and we, the Callaway Chargers educators, strive to instill in our students the belief that they can achieve anything if they put their minds to it. Your contribution has been instrumental in helping us create an environment where this belief can flourish.
Before the school year began, I initiated a project to ensure we had adequate supplies and materials for our students. Thanks to your generosity, we started the school year with actual models of the brain and heart that our scholars could hold and observe. This hands-on experience has been invaluable, allowing students to make real-world connections and see each aspect of these organs in detail, rather than just reading about them.
When my students first saw the materials, they were ecstatic. They felt that they were learning with a purpose. The cleaning supplies and snacks you provided have made our classroom clean, warm, and inviting. Currently, we are studying the integumentary system (the skin, hair, nails, and glands). Our scholars are engaged in a project where they research various diseases and disorders affecting this system and create Google Slides presentations to teach their peers about these conditions. They are excited to become "doctors for the day."
Your support has truly made a difference, and I appreciate each and every donor who has contributed to our classroom. Thank you for being a part of our village and for helping us provide a rich and engaging learning experience for our students.”
