  • Supports for Success

    Funded Aug 30, 2023

    Thank you so much for helping my kids! We are so thankful to have these items that will improve success in the classroom. I’m so excited for the kids to see these supplies when they arrive. So many have asked for them but we simply didn’t have enough at the school. Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

  • Success in Math Starts Here

    Funded Nov 19, 2022

    Thank you so very much for supporting my kids with their education! They don’t often get help from outside school, so this means a lot to them and to me. I’m excited to share the pride they’ll experience thanks to you in the thanks packages that you’ll receive in the spring.”

  • Methods of Madness... Or Notes and Resources?

    Funded Aug 25, 2018

    As some of you well know, copies are hard to come by in schools due to budgets. However, thanks to your generous gift, my students are able to work with colored maps in Social Studies, task cards that allow for more movement and interaction with the content and peers, last minute ideas on how to help students better understand the material, and so much more! It may just be a printer, paper, and ink, but to my students and me, it's a better opportunity to grow and improve their education for a better future.

    The part my students have been most excited about is the colored ink. The students were excited about being able to make copies of notes in the beginning, but have actually come to be more responsible and moved on to loving the color copies. They can see and read images more clearly, along with the interest the color brings to the assignments. I don't think they understand the full scope of what it means to have a printer, paper, and ink (even without color) to allow them all the opportunities they deserve. With this, I am also able to upload copies of assignments easily to the site that shows their grades; this way, they are able to complete or re-do assignments that are missing or could be improved, which of course helps further their knowledge of the content we study.

    The students who have warmed most to this gift are those who understand the cost required to purchase such beneficial gifts, the students who don't have printers at home yet can have their final copies of papers published and printed just as beautifully as anyone else's. It allows the students to appreciate and display the quality of their work and the tasks they complete. It allows them to have extra copies of assignments they have lost, giving them an added piece of responsibility necessary for becoming self-reliant and self-disciplined. It is incredible to see the initiative the students have begun to take in their own education and betterment due to these resources.

    Each benefit of this gift is thanks to you and your generous donation. We are so incredibly thankful to you for the ability to improve the education and opportunities for our 6th Grade family.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Hardin

Most of my students come from difficult home lives. Some students don't have access to internet for me to upload our notes from class, but don't have enough structure to take care of them if they bring them home. I feel the best way I can address this would be to scan the notes and print them for the students to use at night. Many will only have these notes available to help them with homework, which they must learn to complete daily to continue to be successful in school in the future. The problem lies in only being allowed a few hundred copies at the school per semester. I offered to raise money for paper to use at the school, but they need expensive toner and maintenance, etc. With about 15 kids a day needing 1-3 pages of notes printed, this is not enough to get these notes home with the kids. Please help increase my students' success by providing us with a printer, ink, and paper, so I can give them helpful notes and information that most family members cannot provide for them. These kids have a genuine desire to learn and do well in school. With your help, I know each student will achieve exactly this.
