Through Their Eyes: A Pre-K Journey

Help me give my students a way to capture their learning, creativity, and milestones—helping us share their growth with families and celebrate the joy of early childhood education every day.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Byrd's classroom raised $369

My Project

In a Pre-K classroom, every day is filled with small, magical moments — a child writing their name for the first time, discovering the joy of painting, or working together to build something incredible. These milestones mark important steps in a child’s development, and we believe they deserve to be celebrated and shared.

That’s why we’re reaching out to ask for your help in placing a digital camera in every Pre-K classroom.

A classroom camera allows teachers to:

Document student growth through photos of learning activities and projects.

Share special moments with families who can’t always be there in person.

Create visual portfolios that show how much each child has learned and grown.

Strengthen connections between school and home by capturing the joy of daily learning.

Your support will help us preserve these irreplaceable memories and highlight the incredible progress our youngest learners make every day.

Thank you for considering this meaningful addition to our classrooms. With your help, we can ensure no moment of growth goes unnoticed.
