• Classroom Toner for Daily Assignments and Submissions

  Funded Feb 26, 2025

  I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation, which provided our classroom with new clipboards and a storage solution. Your contribution has had an immediate and meaningful impact on our students, enhancing their learning experience and fostering greater engagement in our daily activities.

  The clipboards have quickly become an essential tool in our classroom. We have been using them in a variety of ways, from group discussions and station-based activities to independent assignments that allow students to work more flexibly around the room. One specific project where the clipboards have been particularly beneficial is our recent "Constitution Scavenger Hunt," where students moved between different stations to collect key information about the founding principles of our government. Having the clipboards allowed them to stay organized and focused, making the activity much more effective and enjoyable.

  When the students first saw the new materials, their excitement was palpable. Many of them expressed how much easier it would be to take notes and complete assignments without being confined to their desks. The clipboards have given them the freedom to collaborate in small groups, find comfortable spots to work, and even take their learning outside on a nice day. Seeing their enthusiasm and appreciation reminds me how much these seemingly simple tools can make a big difference in their daily experience.

  As we move forward, our class is embarking on a new unit focused on financial literacy, where students will be working on budgeting simulations and data collection exercises. The clipboards will continue to play a vital role in these hands-on activities, allowing students to track their expenses, analyze financial choices, and engage in collaborative problem-solving exercises with ease.

  Your support has provided more than just supplies—it has created new opportunities for interactive and engaging learning experiences that our students will benefit from throughout the year. Thank you for making a difference in our classroom. We are so grateful for your generosity and investment in our students' future.”

• Classroom Toner Supplies for on Demand Assignments and Support.

  Funded Jan 12, 2025

  I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation of toner supplies to our classroom. Your support has made a significant impact on our students' daily learning experience, and I am thrilled to share how these resources are being utilized.

  With the new toner supplies, my students and I have been able to print essential on-demand assignments and support materials that enhance their understanding of complex topics in both U.S. History and Financial Literacy. One of the most exciting projects we recently completed was a Constitution Day activity, where students analyzed primary source documents and created their own classroom constitution. The ability to provide high-quality printed materials for this project allowed students to engage more deeply, annotate directly on the documents, and collaborate effectively with their peers.

  The excitement on my students' faces when they first saw the freshly printed materials was truly priceless. They were amazed at how clear and professional their assignments looked, and their enthusiasm for learning soared. One student even remarked, "This makes it feel like we're working on something really important!" Your generosity has provided them with a sense of ownership and pride in their work.

  As we move forward, we are diving into our next project—analyzing the impact of different economic systems in our Financial Literacy class. Thanks to your donation, we can now provide individualized printouts, enabling students to work at their own pace and have personalized access to the materials they need to succeed. Additionally, in our U.S. History lessons, we are preparing for an upcoming DBQ (Document-Based Question) exercise, where students will analyze historical sources and construct well-supported essays. Having printed copies of these critical sources allows students to engage in meaningful discussions and develop strong analytical skills.

  Once again, thank you for your kindness and support. Your contribution has made a real difference in our classroom, and I look forward to keeping you updated on our progress.”

• Seeking Classroom Comfort: Dehumidifier & Air Purifier Wanted

  Funded Jul 31, 2024

  Your contributions to my classroom has made a tangible impact in the day to day comfort in our classroom. I have watched the humidity of my room be reduced from an all time high of 88% down to the low of 29%.

  The air quality in our classroom has greatly improved thanks to the air purifier. There is considerably less dust in our room as there was prior to the introduction of this amazing air purifier. As we enter cold and flu season, it is nice to know that we have a little bit of an insurance policy against the all too often dreaded chorus of sneezing and coughing in my windowless classroom!

  Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to contribute to my students and this stellar community that I serve. Thank you for having our backs.”
