I am SUPER HAPPY to announce that I am participating in Mustaches for Kids. I have looked long and hard for a reason to grow a moustache without an accompanying beard...and I've found it! That's right, for the next four weeks, I will be subjecting myself to public humiliation and private doubt by growing what will no-doubt be a ridiculous looking Mustache. In order to justify this endeavor I need your support. Please sponsor my Mustache by picking a classroom project from the list ... more

  • Don't be a fool, reading is cool!!

    Funded Jan 12, 2010

    I want to thank you on behalf of all my students for the wonderful books you provided for our classroom. The children have been reading their new books and were able to produce wonderful end of the year projects. This was the first time they could relate to the books and even the most reluctant readers could not put their books down. I am personally very thankful for the set of study skills books that were funded. They were an excellent tool to use with my middle school students. The students were able to apply these skills and use them throughout their classes. Thank you again for your generosity! The children and I are so appreciative of what you have provided and the books will defiantly be used for years to come. ”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Swieton

  • Never Been Absent!

    Funded Dec 7, 2009

    Thank you so much for your donation to our school. We are so grateful for your support of our attendance initiative. This year we have been able to see our attendance steadily increase, despite the impact of the Swine Flu and the horrible winter that we faced. Our attendance has remained above our goal of 94% for every month since we started the program. The students love the incentives that we have been able to offer them individually and as classrooms. Giving classrooms the opportunity to win a basketball helped our classrooms to work together towards a common goal. It taught them teamwork and it also helped to reinforce the importance of coming to school every day. Thank you again for your generous donation!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. D.

  • Word Detectives need Dictionaries

    Funded Dec 23, 2009

    This is just a small token of my gratitude for your generous donation to my classroom. The dictionaries you have donated have helped my students every single day. The students were so excited to use these colorful and child-friendly dictionaries to complete their assignments. We have used them to learn new words, to write poems and essays, and to complete homework assignments. They have also been a valuable tool for teaching the students reference skills.

    Many of the students in my classroom are English Language Learners and have difficulty with vocabulary. These dictionaries have proven to be a very valuable resource for them.

    Without donors like you, many of my students, as well as students around the United States, would go without. We appreciate your generosity.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Gowans
