  • Owl Pellet Ecosystem Exploration!

    Funded Nov 4, 2024

    Thank you so much for your generous donations to help me create the learning experiences that last a lifetime for our students!!! This project is an especially important piece of our environmental ecosystem unit, and for my students to better learn about the essential role our interesting feathered neighbors play even in a cityscape like Los Angeles!! I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your support to deliver hands-on STEAM instruction to my classes.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Karan

  • Let's Use STEAM to Design 3d Tectonic Plate Boundary Models!

    Funded Sep 28, 2024

    Thank you for your generous support of our science program in Los Angeles. Your contribution plays a vital role in delivering hands-on, individualized instruction in science, technology, engineering, art, and math to our students. Your commitment to their education is truly appreciated and makes a significant difference in their learning experience. In our journey in understanding how the Earth's surface has changed through plate tectonics, our students will be able to apply this information focused on new challenges we face in the future under climate change.”

  • The Microscopic World Comes to Life in the Classroom!

    Funded Feb 16, 2012

    I want to thank each

    of you for your valuable, generous donations to help my students build upon

    their science inquiry skills using our new stereomicroscope! In a time where educational budgets are

    shrinking and our class sizes continue to grow, we have to depend more on the

    generosity of donors like you to assist us in providing the valuable education

    every child needs to thrive. As the use of hands-on activities and

    investigations play a crucial role in understanding scientific inquiry, your

    gift allowed our students to work as real scientists to better understand how

    science works, which will better prepare them for high school and college

    science courses. This project was

    also very beneficial for our students with special needs, as students from all

    three of our Special Education Programs were better able to access grade level

    concepts through the hands-on investigations/ activities funded by your

    donations.... you are the heroes that helped make quality learning happen among our

    science classes!!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Karan

My students attend a small middle school near downtown Los Angeles, CA. Our students are mostly English Language Learners from various backgrounds. Our school is a 100% free lunch program school, meaning that there are few resources available for these kids to learn outside of what is provided to them during school hours. I am proud to serve our community of both established and newly immigrated families into our STEAM Science program at Pio Pico Middle School in Los Angeles!
