  • Bases Are Loaded

    Funded Mar 25, 2025

    Thanks to the generous support from our DonorsChoose project, we received new kickballs and rubber bases that were immediately put to great use during recess. The students were so excited to have new equipment, and it made their games more organized, fun, and inclusive. Having a reliable set of bases allowed them to set up quickly and play safely, encouraging more kids to join in and stay active. It truly helped make our outdoor time more enjoyable and structured.

    One of the biggest highlights was using the new gear for our annual 5th grade vs. staff kickball game! This event is always one of the most anticipated traditions at our school, and the new equipment made it even better. The fresh kickballs had the perfect bounce, and the durable bases made the field feel official. Students and staff alike had a blast, and it created memories that will last far beyond the school year. Thank you for helping us bring fun, teamwork, and tradition to life!”

  • Drone Zone

    Funded Mar 14, 2025

    Thank you so much for funding our project! The mini-drones have brought so much excitement and hands-on learning to our classroom. My Girls Who Code club and science students have loved exploring STEM concepts like coding, engineering, and problem-solving in a fun, creative way. The girls in the afterschool club loved being able to try them out and learn how to maneuver them. We used the obstacle course items to work on controlling the drones and they did a fantastic job. I cannot wait to use them again next year. Your support truly made a difference!”
