  • Academic Success Starts With Hydration!!

    Funded Oct 9, 2022

    Thank you for supporting our classroom project. With your generous donations you have allowed us to keep our kids hydrated during the school day which allows them to feel their best and to perform their best in class each day. The students have loved being able to have a safe place to store their personal water bottles so the are able to have access to water when the need it, but not take the risk of knocking the water over and ruining papers or Chromebook like in the past. This has made the organizational running of our class a success.”

  • Let's Get Reading -2nd Grade Stronger!

    Funded Nov 2, 2017

    Thank you for donating and supporting our classroom project. Second grade is the year that students truly start to find their love for reading. To help foster this love, it is important to have the popular books and series that the students are interested in reading. Through this project our class was able to receive a ton of books across various series, genres and interest levels. Every student in the class was able to vote for at least one book they really wanted for the project. Each day that the books come in they are so excited and it is magical to watch the enthusiasm in their eyes.”

    Funded Aug 26, 2016

    We are so grateful for your support and partnership. As part of our 2nd grade standards we teach the kids about citizenship and responsibility. As part of being a citizen I always want to take it a step more and teach them about the voting process. What better way than to make it real world learning and allow them to fell like they have are part of this process during an election year. Because of your generous donation you have help to make learning come alive in the classroom and brought the world's current events into the classroom. As teachers we try to expose our students to as much as possible but that can get expensive. This is why donors like you are so very special to us and the future of our kids.

  • Help Inspire The Love Of Reading

    Funded Sep 22, 2015

    Thank you for the willingness to support not only your child, but to support the love of reading for hundreds of children. This will impact student lives for years to come. I try to give my students every opportunity to love their learning and have all the resources needed to keep them engaged and excited about learning. This applies to reading especially. Many beginning and struggling readers have a hard time finding books that grab their attention and get them hooked on the love of reading. By giving the kids the opportunity to tell me the books and series they want, this engages them in the ownership of their learning. With so many titles they requested I am only able to make sure everyone has their choice with help from donors like yourself. Thank you!”
