  • Minimize Inequity in Learning by Giving Access to Snacks

    Funded Nov 28, 2023

    Thank you so much for coming together to support and encourage nourishing our future leaders while they work towards thinking, challenging and building ideas in my classroom. Every day there are many students who travel far to attend our school. Having snacks are so essential to help motivate our students whose parents long work long hours to make ends meet. When children’s needs are met, there are moments where it all just clicks and a student finally understands what was unclear so many times before.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Usbay

    This classroom project was brought to life by Con Edison and one other donor.
  • Access to Literacy and Growth Through Multi-Modal Learning

    Funded Oct 1, 2023

    I do not have the words to express my sincere gratitude for your support for our project. We try to offer as many opportunities and access to literacy for our multilingual learners and students who are English New Learners. Your support - Young Sheldon CBS makes it possible for us to do this! The supplies that you are providing for my middle school students will allow us to teach/reinforce access to tech to build literacy as well as develop students in confidence in expression through writing. Thank you so much!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Usbay
