Students Deserve Inner Calm, Too

Funded Nov 13, 2024

Thanks to your generosity, my students now have a classroom environment that truly supports their focus and learning. The new resources have transformed our space, making it feel calmer, more inviting, and free from distractions. The softer lighting has been a game-changer for students who struggle with harsh fluorescent lights, creating a more comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. Additionally, the new window coverings help block out the constant movement and noise from the busy middle school hallway, allowing students to stay engaged in their work without unnecessary interruptions.

With this improved learning space, we've been diving into our latest projects with renewed focus. Right now, my students are deep in our study of The Princess Bride, analyzing the fast-paced fight scenes and exploring how flashbacks develop character depth. Their ability to engage with the text—without the distractions of a chaotic environment—has been noticeably stronger.”

With gratitude,
