The History Of Me

Funded Sep 18, 2013

To each of our special Donors,

Please accept the thanks from each of the students of my Sociology class for your generous donation to our classroom. Each and every student was so excited to receive the scrapbooks you helped purchase for their "History of Me" project. The project, began back in September, is now truly taking shape thanks to you as they have begun to fill their books with their information. We work on the project in class just once a month, but as each of those days arrive, I am so excited to see the life that has been placed into each of the scrapbooks due to their work they do on them at home. The beautiful scrapbooks you purchased has motivated each of them to do their best.

I have no doubt that presentations from the scrapbooks at the end of the year will be exciting and a joy to witness as each student presents their lives from the books that you made happen. Education always seems to receive the short end of the stick in terms of the budget at the federal & state level. Without your assistance, we would have had to rely on old binders or notebooks to finish the project. I know my students would have done their best with those old binders, but they now have something truly special that not only gives them motivation to work harder, but a beautiful book they can look back on in years to come. A book that will perhaps give them reason to give to others thanks to the gift you gave to them.

Without donors like you, thousands of classrooms in the United States would go without. Without donors like you, tens of thousands of children of America, would go without. You have shined a light in Room 9 at Westwind Preparatory Academy and for that, each and every one of us wishes to say thank you for that blessing.”

With gratitude,

Mr. Miller
