Success During Distance Learning
Funded Sep 11, 2020During COVID-19 Pandemic we have all leaned on technology to keep us connected. During distance learning educator, students, and staff have used technology to also to keep us connect in our school community.
What I am most excited about providing the wireless, noise canceling headphones for students is they are more focused at home during learning time. I saw a big difference in their focus and attention after receiving the headphones.
My students were so excited to get their hands on the headphones and are continuing to use them. They love them! The students that have most benefited are my students with a disability in attention or with ADHD, they have mentioned that the noise distractions at home have lessened when using their new headphones.
Thank you again for your generosity.”

This classroom project was brought to life by The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and 14 other donors.Get Comfy in Flexible Seating
Funded Jan 1, 2019My students were so excited to receive the wobble chairs and bean bags . When they saw them for the first time in the classroom they all wanted to try them out. They could not wait until it was their turn to try. Over the past several months students have loved using them. During class they are able to "get their wiggles out" and "stay focused" on their tasks. Then bean bags are used to create a quite space in my class room.
Many of my students need a quite space to decompress and then go back to class if, they are having a difficult time due to their emotions in other classes. The bean bags have been an asset, students use the quite space to journal or listen to music in order to decompress and go back to class ready to work.
Thank you all for donating to my project and giving my students the resources they need to be successful in school.”
