A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
High school students require a learning environment that is engaging, promotes collaboration and encourages student voice. This project will enhance the learning environment for both students and teachers by providing resources that support engaging activities, foster collaboration, and contribute to overall well-being of students.
Having a color printer enables the creation of more realistic manipulatives, which can then be laminated to enhance their durability.
This extends their lifespan and maximizes their value. This cost-effective strategy ensures educational tools like flashcards, charts, and activity sheets remain in excellent condition, supporting hands-on learning for years to come.
Snack opportunities help keep students energized and focused, preventing hunger from becoming a distraction. Additionally, having coffee and hot cocoa for our beverage station offers a much-needed pick-me-up, supporting sustained energy and productivity throughout the school day.
Providing classroom supplies, such as Expo markers and Post-it notes, fosters collaboration and creativity. These tools are integral to brainstorming, group work, and interactive teaching strategies and allow for the learning environment to extend beyond the classroom including using windows for brainstorming and collaboration.
Fans will help maintain a comfortable classroom temperature, ensuring that both teachers and students remain focused on learning, especially on hot days. And basic supplies like Kleenex and hand soap meet daily needs for students.
In summary, this project will support essential resources that contribute to a more engaging, efficient, and supportive learning environment for students. These provisions ensure that everyone has the tools they need to thrive academically and personally.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
