Incentivizing Classroom Participation and Collaboration

Funded Sep 14, 2024

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for your generous support of our project aimed at uplifting the socioemotional health of students in our high school English class. Thanks to your donation, we were able to provide materials such as snacks, stickers, and vibrant classroom decor that have made a meaningful difference in the learning environment. These small but impactful additions have helped create a positive, welcoming space where students feel valued and motivated to engage more deeply in their academic and personal growth. The snacks provide comfort, incentivized participation, and a sense of care, while the stickers and decor encourage self-expression and a sense of ownership over their space.

Your contribution has directly impacted the emotional well-being of our 11th-grade students, helping to reduce stress and foster feelings of community within the classroom. Many of my students have expressed how these thoughtful touches have made them feel more supported, not just academically, but as individuals with vastly different experiences outside of school. Your belief in the importance of socioemotional health in education has truly made a difference to us here, and we are grateful for your continued partnership in nurturing the whole child. Thank you once again for your kindness and generosity. We look forward to seeing the lasting impact of this initiative as we continue to support our students' growth and success.”

With gratitude,

Ms. McDonald
