  • When It's Cold Outside

    Funded Dec 6, 2022

    I am beyond grateful for your generosity to our students. You are such a blessing. Many of our students don't have basic items, such as lip balm, hand lotion, and gloves. I often see students with dry, cracked hands, so share my moisturizer with them.

    When my students were allowed to choose items from our various drawers and cabinets, they were absolutely amazed. They are so excited to see items that they really need, as many of them walk to and from school in harsh conditions. It is truly a blessing to be a blessing and Donors Choose has afforded me the opportunity to be a blessing to my entire school.”

My Project encourages students to become better organized and better prepared for classes. Students will use all materials to organize and annotate guidebooks for English. Students will learn to better effective organize class work. In my twenty years as an educator, I have observed that students often struggle with organizing supplies, class work, and other activities. I try my best to help students become better organized to keep up with their work. I have often included parents to help me with starting a system with students to help them arrange their work and book bags. We can do this! We just need a little help with it!
