  We are forever grateful for the donations that we have received through your generosity. The students now have ability to access to a chrome book at all times and this will help their progression of learning english, and it turn, it will increase their interventions scores and knowledge.

  The wireless mice will allow those students who prefer to use them to have access to them at all times. Teaching three classes of 24 or more students daily can caused limited amount of functioning headphones, and with the new headphones more students can get on the interventions sight and learn more.”

• Healthy Snacks Keeps the Brain Intact

  Funded Nov 10, 2017

  Thank you so much for your help in funding our "Healthy Snacks Keeps the Brain Intact" project. The students were super excited to open the boxes and to see all of the healthy snacks. There were several snacks that the students had not heard or seen before. The students came up with the idea to do taste testing some afternoons so that all the students have an opportunity to taste the snacks in hopes that they will make healthier choices when selecting snacks at the store.

  To their surprise, looks are deceiving. I describe the ingredients in the snacks and different students try and give a review of the snack. Not only are they receiving the snacks so that their brains can remain intact they are also making better decision when purchasing snacks.”

• Let's Get Clean and Healthy!

  Funded Jul 27, 2017

  Thank you for donations towards my "Let's Get Clean and Healthy". In middle school I like to reiterate responsibility for ourselves and our environment, and having the cleaning materials such as the broom and dust pan, paper towels and Clorox wipes has help to keep the environment clean and reiterates responsibility.

  The large containers of hand sanitizer as well as the tissues are readily available for all students to use when necessary.

  The students love using the gloves to clean the desk and they are looking forward to using them for science experiments.”

• Printer and Ink to the Rescue!

  Funded Jul 27, 2017

  Thank you so much for donating towards our printer and the ink. It has relieved the tension of standing in line to use the printer and also it allows myself and the students to have access to a printer at all times.

  The students were excited to see that we had a printer in the room and have already used the it to print out rules that they created to share with the class.

  Other students who where the recorders for their table were very excited to be able to print out the results from their group activities. One student was quoted as say "It will make your life and our lives easier to have a printer in the room."”

• Pencils, Papers and Supplies, Oh My!

  Funded Mar 29, 2017

  Thank you for funding the items to enhance my classes group activities. We were able to smoothly complete the end of the year without worrying about supplies.

  The paper was used to complete activities, pencils and erasers were readily available and therefore, instruction was not interrupted.

  The students played multiplication bingo and were able to have their markers as well as erasers.

  The other objects were of great help, a pencil sharpener that worked all the time was a pleasure.

  The students was so happy to receive the materials. I presented the items like it was Christmas. They immediately wanted to use the dry erase marker and the erasers.”
