FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ford's classroom raised $608

My Project

I absolutely adore my students and their unique personalities! Each one brings something special to the classroom and I love seeing them grow and learn. They are all so talented and have such potential for success.

This IXL subscription will truly make a difference in their learning by providing them with the tools they need to excel.

With these resources, I will be able to provide even more engaging and interactive lessons that will help my students reach their full potential. I can already picture the excitement on their faces as they learn new concepts and achieve their learning goals.

By supporting our classroom, donors will be making a direct impact on the lives of these amazing students. They will be helping to shape the next generation of leaders and innovators, and I am so grateful for their generosity. Thank you for considering supporting our classroom and helping to make a difference in the lives of our students!
