My Project

Dear Supporters,

At TA, we believe that every moment of the school day is an opportunity for growth, fun, and engagement.

However, when inclement weather strikes and outdoor recess is no longer an option, we want to ensure that our students still have an enjoyable and enriching experience.

That's why we're launching this DonorsChoose campaign to fund exciting indoor recess activities! With your help, we aim to transform those indoor recess periods into moments of creativity, exploration, and laughter.

Your donation will enable us to provide a diverse range of activities, including:

Board Games and Puzzles: Stimulate critical thinking and problem-solving skills with a variety of board games and puzzles that cater to different age groups and interests.

Arts and Crafts Supplies: Spark imagination and creativity with art supplies like colored pencils, markers, construction paper, and clay, allowing students to express themselves through various mediums.

Educational Activities: Foster a love for learning with educational games, STEM kits, and interactive resources that make indoor recess both fun and intellectually stimulating.

Relaxation and Mindfulness Tools: Help students unwind and practice mindfulness with calming activities such as coloring books, stress balls, and yoga mats, promoting emotional well-being and stress relief.

By supporting our indoor recess initiative, you're not only providing moments of joy and excitement for our students but also promoting social-emotional development, teamwork, and resilience.

Thank you for your generosity and commitment to ensuring that every moment of our school day is filled with learning and joy!
