My Project

Dear Donors,

I am seeking your support in continuing to create a safe and nurturing environment for my students.

By providing a comfortable corner with soft chairs and a rug, I aim to offer students a place to de-stress and take a break for the computer screen when needed. Additionally, I am requesting nutritious snacks to ensure that no student goes hungry during the school day, as well as small treats and incentives to motivate and engage students in their learning. These resources, along with inviting decorations, will contribute to a positive and inclusive classroom culture where every student feels supported and empowered to thrive. I have seen firsthand the success of motivating students through small treats and incentives, and I am excited to continue leveraging these tools to enhance student morale and participation in the classroom.

Your support for this project will enhance the well-being and academic success of my students. Thank you for considering my project and for your commitment to making a difference in the lives of our students.

Sincerely,

Shari Lucas

Ms. Lucas Mount Ogden Junior High School Grades 6-8
