Hello! Our STEM inter-district magnet school preschool classroom is comprised of fifteen four and five year-old students. Seventy percent of our students are from an inner city environment, and the remaining thirty percent are from surrounding suburban towns. Fostering oral language development, vocabulary, and social and emotional skills are an important part of our preschool program. While our school district provides funds to cover basic supplies, it does not afford us the opportunity to take advantage of the abundance of learning resources available to optimize the students' thinking and learning. Please know that your kindness and generosity in donating to my projects is making a positive impact on the lives of our youngest learners. For that, I am truly grateful for your support. Kindest regards, Mary Ellen
