  • Help Us Create a Thriving Learning Environment for Our Students!

    Funded Jan 22, 2025

    I hope this letter finds you well. On behalf of our entire classroom, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your generous donation of iPads. Your kindness has made a tremendous difference in our special education, self-contained 2nd and 3rd grade classroom.

    The iPads have opened up a world of learning and communication for our students. Many of our learners face unique challenges, and these devices have given them new ways to access the curriculum, express themselves, and build confidence. Whether it's using voice-to-text to write stories, interactive apps for building math and reading skills, or visual supports to help with communication, the iPads have truly transformed the way we teach and the way our students learn.

    It's not just about technology—it's about connection, growth, and independence. We've already seen students become more engaged, motivated, and proud of their progress. That's all thanks to your support.

    Your generosity has had a lasting impact, and we are so grateful for the opportunities you've provided. Thank you for believing in our students and helping them reach their potential.

    With sincere appreciation,”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Krpata

    I wanted to take a moment to share the impact your generous donation has had on our classroom and students.

    With the new Magna-Tiles, we've been able to integrate hands-on math activities that encourage both creativity and teamwork. Recently, the students collaborated on a project to build different geometric shapes and structures. Watching them work together, problem-solve, and communicate effectively was truly inspiring. Their enthusiasm soared as they constructed intricate designs, and the sense of accomplishment was palpable when they presented their creations to the class.

    When the students first saw the Magna-Tiles, their eyes widened with excitement! They immediately began experimenting, combining colors and shapes in ways I hadn't anticipated. It was wonderful to see them so engaged and eager to learn.

    Additionally, providing snacks for the students has been a huge relief for many parents, allowing them to feel more at ease knowing their children are nourished and focused during school hours.

    Looking ahead, we plan to extend our math lessons by introducing challenges where students will apply their knowledge of shapes and measurements to create more complex structures. This will not only enhance their math skills but also deepen their ability to work as a team.

    Thank you once again for your support! Your contributions have enriched our classroom experience and have made a lasting difference in the lives of my students.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Krpata
