Prickly Pears Montessori Upper Elementary
Funded Feb 23, 2024I am truly grateful for your thoughtful contributions through DonorsChoose, which provided our classroom with tablecloths, a vacuum, and indoor recess equipment. These items have become invaluable to our daily routines, especially during the sweltering Arizona heat.
The tablecloths have added a sense of warmth and organization to our classroom, creating a welcoming space for both learning and creativity. They have been a delightful touch during group projects and special classroom events, fostering a sense of community among my students.
The vacuum has been a lifesaver, keeping our learning space clean and comfortable despite the inevitable messes that come with active and curious learners. It has allowed us to maintain a tidy environment where students can focus on their work without distractions.
The indoor recess equipment has been a game-changer, offering my students fun and engaging activities when the outdoor heat is too intense. These resources have provided much-needed breaks, encouraging movement, collaboration, and joy, even on the hottest days.
Your generosity has significantly enhanced our classroom experience, making it more inviting, functional, and student-friendly. My students and I are incredibly grateful for your kindness and support. Your impact will be felt for years to come as these materials continue to enrich our daily lives.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Crippen

Funded Nov 11, 2024I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your incredible support through DonorsChoose. Thanks to your generosity, our classroom is now equipped with a color printer, blackout curtains, and other valuable supplies that have truly transformed our learning environment.
The color printer has brought our projects to life, allowing students to create vibrant, professional-quality presentations and displays. Whether it is printing colorful research reports, visual aids, or creative artwork, the ability to print in color has inspired creativity and boosted their confidence in presenting their ideas.
The blackout curtains have made a tremendous difference during lessons that require optimal focus, especially when using our projector or during mindfulness moments. These simple yet impactful additions have improved our classroom's functionality and comfort, creating an environment where students feel engaged and supported.
From the first day we used these materials, the excitement and enthusiasm in the room were palpable. My students have embraced the opportunity to explore their creativity and share their learning in ways that were not possible before. It has been truly inspiring to witness how these resources have enhanced their educational experience.
Your generosity is not just an investment in materials; it is an investment in the future of every student in our classroom. On behalf of my students and myself, thank you for believing in us and making our learning environment a brighter, more dynamic place to grow and thrive.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Crippen
