Because of your generosity, my students now have access to tools that help them pause, reset, and refocus during the school day—something that is more important than ever.\r\nIn a theatre classroom, students are constantly asked to be vulnerable, expressive, and collaborative. That kind of work requires not only creativity but also emotional awareness and regulation. The materials you provided give my students a way to manage stress, practice mindfulness, and take care of their mental well-being so they can fully engage in both their learning and their art.\r\nAlready, I've seen students using these tools to ground themselves before performances, calm nerves during high-pressure moments, and support one another in building a positive classroom environment. These are skills that extend far beyond the stage—they are life skills.\r\nYour support is not just appreciated—it is felt every single day in our classroom. You have helped create a space where students feel safe, supported, and ready to take creative risks.\r\nThank you for believing in my students and in the power of the arts.","fullyFundedDate":1768099921402,"projectUrl":"project/cup-of-calm-supporting-mental-health-in/9992514/","projectTitle":"Cup of Calm: Supporting Mental Health in Our Theatre Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Moray","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9349857"},{"teacherId":10304905,"projectId":10006128,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation to my classroom. Forensic Science requires so much equipment and supplies to give students the opportunity to get an accurate, real-world experience in the field. In my class, we cover a variety of topics and potential careers within Forensic Science. I like to show students all the possibilities that are out there and encourage our underrepresented population to try and change the stereotypical view of who a Forensic Scientist is.\r\nThis donation was used to purchase a new camera that is used in every aspect of Forensic Science, as well as clay to allow students to experience the duties of a Forensic Artist.

We've been using the Cricut machine to design and create personalized projects connected to our lessons, one of our favorite moments was when students designed and cut their own classroom labels and stickers. Seeing their ideas come to life right in front of them was incredibly rewarding, and it sparked so much pride in their work.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the excitement in the room was unforgettable. Students were amazed by the possibilities and immediately began brainstorming all the things they could create. Many of them had never experienced anything like this before, so it opened up a whole new world of creativity and innovation for them.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we are continuing to incorporate these tools into our lessons by working on more advanced design projects that connect to our curriculum. Students will be creating visual aids, presentations, and collaborative projects that deepen their understanding of what we're learning in class. Because of you, my students are not only learning, they are creating, exploring, and building confidence every day.

They are always asking me for the new basketballs during our basketball unit in the gym. In addition, the ping pong table has provided them with an indoor option they never had before and they love competing with each other.

From the moment students saw the new supplies and color printer, their excitement was immediate and genuine. Having access to pencils, folders, paper, and vibrant materials has allowed every student to participate fully and confidently—without worrying about whether they have what they need. The color printer has been especially impactful, turning everyday assignments into engaging, visually rich learning experiences that students are proud to share.\r\nStudents are already using these resources in meaningful ways. We've incorporated colorful printed materials into lessons and projects, helping students better understand concepts and express their ideas creatively. I've watched students light up as they organize their work in new folders, choose bright paper for projects, and collaborate more confidently, knowing they are equipped for success. These simple tools have reduced stress, increased focus, and boosted classroom engagement overall.\r\nMoving forward, these resources will continue to support our current and upcoming units by allowing students to create projects, visuals, and presentations that reflect their learning and creativity. Thanks to you, our classroom is not only more colorful—it is more inclusive, supportive, and empowering.

Additionally, 9 families received holiday meal boxes, which included items sourced directly from the food pantry to help ensure they had meals to share during the holidays. The pantry has become a vital support system for our students and families, offering not only food but also dignity, relief, and reassurance that they are not alone. \r\n\r\nThank you for helping us make a meaningful difference in the lives of our students and families.
