  • Seeking Headphones for 21st Century Learning!

    Funded May 9, 2019

    Thank you so much for your generous donation of headphones. Typically, students at my school cannot afford to buy their own so THANK YOU for generously giving to help students in need. Without donors like you, my classroom wouldn't not have everything it needs to be successful in a modern world.

    My students were so excited to help me open the box. Their faces lit up! Now, when we are testing or doing assignment on the computer, lower students have headphones so they have the option to have the questions read to them, which helps boost their comprehension.

    Thank you again for donating your hard-earned money to help my students. I appreciate it so much and I know my students do as well. Thanks for helping my students have a quality public education. Have a great day!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Carnes

  • Amazingly Awesome Alternative Seating Options!

    Funded Apr 26, 2018

    Wow! I am blown away by your giving! Thank you so much for your support. We have been having a GREAT time using all of the donated supplies. Flexible seating has become a super fun reward in my classroom this year and it warms my heart to see my students working diligently for the opportunity to use special seats. Without your generous support, this would not be possible. THANK YOU for giving your hard-earned money to help my students. I appreciate each and every one of you. Thanks again!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Carnes

I am a first year teacher with a very, very active group of 4th grade students. These students need an outlet for their excess energy while they complete assignments. I was very skeptical about flexible seating at first, but after seeing flexible seating run smoothly and successfully in a teacher friend’s classroom, I see how it would benefit my students and have many ideas to implement it. My students need to be able to wiggle while they work! With your generous donation towards these flexible seating items, my active class can wiggle around while getting work done in nontraditional seating! At this point in time where so many children sit for hours and hours every day, my desire is to encourage them to be more productive by letting them have more freedom in choosing their workspace! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!
