We Need A Place Of Our Own!
Funded May 29, 2024I am writing to extend my heartfelt thanks for your generous donation toward our classroom carpet. Your support has made such a positive impact on our learning environment, creating a warm and inviting space where students feel comfortable and ready to engage in learning. The new carpet has become a central part of our classroom, providing a cozy spot for group activities, reading time, and interactive lessons.
For many of my students, particularly in special education, having a safe and comfortable space to gather is so important. The new carpet offers them a soft and sensory-friendly area where they can focus better, interact with their peers, and enjoy learning in a more relaxed setting. Your contribution is helping to create an inclusive space that fosters both academic and social growth.
Once again, thank you so much for your generosity and kindness. You have truly made a difference in our classroom, and my students and I are incredibly grateful. The carpet will be a cherished part of our learning space for years to come, thanks to your support.”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Bantsolas
