Teaching Excellence Requires Excellent Teaching Tools
Funded Nov 20, 2018
Thank you so much for funding this project. White boards help anchor information and allow students to demonstrate their work. My students will love this new white board, but more than that they will value the investment from people like you. My students understand that their success is supported by a collaboration of family, friends, teachers, and the community. This donation is tangible proof of our belief in them.”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Spraggins
This classroom project was brought to life by New Teacher Fund and 7 other donors.

To maximize learning potential, classrooms should be open, comfortable, well lit, and visually stimulating. From the front door to the classroom, the aesthetics of learning spaces impact brain function and influence how students feel when they are in school - as well as how they feel about their school. When students walk into my room, they experience an environment created with love, but with limited teaching tools and resources. My students are outperforming not only schools in our city, but schools in our state and nation. They are doing this in outdated portable buildings that still have chalkboards or chalkboards covered in white contact paper. Studies show that the brain likes new things. Posters and other images on walls help capture students’ attention. The easiest and most economical way of doing this is using magnetic whiteboards. I have requested a glass magnetic marker board. A glass board is more durable and will last longer with middle school students.
