Funded Apr 9, 2019Thank you so much for your donation towards this project. Every student desires to be able to wear clean clothes daily. The uniforms that you so generously donated have started a clothing closet for the school. The students that will used these clothes are so lucky to have someone like you to care about them as a whole person. Students are allowed to take those clothes without worry of returning them and have a fresh uniform to wear for the day.

Level Up: Reading
Funded Feb 28, 2019As we approach the last quarter it is often difficult to push those higher readers to go beyond and expand their learning. This high-interest books have ignited a new passion for reading. I have been able to watch the students engage more in their independent reading time. Often discussing with their classmates about the book they are currently reading and ready to trade off for a new book.
Truly it was a wonderful experience for the students to open the packages of books your purchased for them. They were thrilled to see the new titles and eager to begin reading.
I can not thank you enough for investing in my students. Providing them with books that have grabbed their attention and made the excited to read.”

Funded Feb 27, 2019With the most sincere gratitude I thank you for providing my students these basic essentials. Often times we overlook some acts of kindness that has the most impact. Your generosity is not overlooked. My students were thrilled to be the recipients of a take home care pack. This act of kindness showed them that others care for their well-being in a major way.
Upon seeing their care package on top of their desk students were excited. They began smelling the different soaps and deodorant. Excited to take the supplies home and put them to use. For many, this will allow them the opportunity to practice the self-care skills being taught at home. Being able to come to school fresh will increase self-esteem and allow students to focus more on their academics.
Again, I thank you for investing in the lives of the students in my class.”

A Clean Learning Environment
Funded Feb 12, 2019"Mrs. Williams, it smell so good in here". This statement would have never left the mouth of students had it not been for the generosity you displayed. I am so happy to be able to provide the students with a clean learning space. Several times a week, I have been vacuuming our classroom rugs. This allows for the picking of debris that comes from their daily movement. We have initiated "clean it Fridays". On this day as a class we spend a few minutes at the end of the day using the Clorox wipes to clean off desk, tables, chairs, and other frequently touched spots.
I have already begun to noticed how a cleaner environment has had a positive impact on students. Despite this cold and flu season, student attendance had been regular. This will also impact their academics. Students are in class and able to get consistent instruction.
Thank you for investing in the lives of my students.”

Starting off with a Good Mindset
Funded Oct 25, 2018Again, I thank you for your donations to help fund this meaningful project. We have begun the school year but these gentle reminders have been great visuals for students.

These also serve as great reminders to students that they too can be like the characters in the book. We all will be face with obstacles that seem too hard, it is our mindset, the way we approach these obstacles to shows growth and progress.”
