Our amazing principal Monica Speaks purchased several bookshelves and we filled them with the board games and card games you helped us purchase. Our students love them! These games get used by students every day during lunch! Students are having fun and connecting with each other face to face as they play the games rather than just staring at their phone screens. \r\n\r\nTo say your generosity has had an impact seems like gross understatement!

These calculators have transformed the way my students interact with math—especially concepts that once felt abstract or intimidating.\r\n\r\nThe color screens and graphing features have allowed students to see math in ways they couldn't before. Suddenly, functions, transformations, and data displays are no longer just numbers on a page—they are vibrant, visual, and meaningful. Struggling learners who used to feel overwhelmed are now leaning in with confidence. Students who once hesitated to participate are volunteering to explain what they notice on the screen. The calculators have become tools of empowerment, not just equipment.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, these calculators have helped level the playing field. Many students did not have access to graphing technology outside the classroom, making advanced math feel out of reach. Now, every student—regardless of background—can explore higher-level concepts with the same tools and the same opportunities.\r\n\r\nYour support didn't just fund calculators; it supported curiosity, confidence, and a more equitable classroom. Thank you for believing in my students and giving them the resources they need to succeed.

For example, when exploring slope, transformations, or systems of equations, students can immediately see the relationships unfold on the screen. This has been especially powerful for my visual learners and students who sometimes struggle to make connections using only pencil and paper.\r\n\r\nThe calculators are also giving students more independence and confidence. They are able to check their thinking, explore \"what if\" questions, and approach challenging problems with less hesitation. Instead of being intimidated by technology, they are embracing it as a partner in learning.\r\n\r\nYour support has made this possible.
