Students now have real instruments to hold, play, and try as well as literature purchased through this project to help guide their lessons. We have just currently started the new \"band class\" at our school and to my knowledge we are the only elementary band in our county if not the district and this is all thanks to the amazing donors! (YOU GUYS!!!)\r\n\r\nI look forward to continuing to work with the students and expand their knowledge to new horizons and watch these kids build a new appreciation for music.

These instruments allow them to join, participate, learn, and enjoy something that many would never have the opportunity to experience. \r\nI cannot thank you all enough, and please know that the student's are having a blast and are truly grateful for the instruments they have.

With your support, we were able to purchase silicone molds, colorful pigments, and glitter—materials that opened up a whole new world of creativity and personal expression for our students. More importantly, this project served as a meaningful opportunity to build resilience through art.\r\nWorking with resin requires patience, care, and a willingness to embrace mistakes—important lessons for growing minds. Students learned to stay focused during the multi-step process and to remain calm even when results weren't perfect. Watching them problem-solve, adapt, and celebrate each unique creation showed just how powerful hands-on art can be for emotional growth. These experiences helped them build confidence, persistence, and pride in their abilities.

Your contribution has had a remarkable impact on our students' creativity and confidence. With these tools, our young artists explored the world of design by using Canva to create their own unique logos and artwork. They were then able to see their digital designs come to life as they transferred them onto tumblers, makeup bags, and flags—turning imagination into something tangible and personal.\r\nThis project gave our students hands-on experience with modern creative technology and design thinking. For many, it was their first time creating something they could take home and proudly use or gift. The excitement and pride on their faces when they saw their custom designs pressed into real products was unforgettable. Your support helped us provide an enriching, real-world application of art that will stay with them for years to come.

My students were beyond excited when they first saw the Wooble kits and colorful yarn — their eyes lit up, and many immediately asked, \"Can we start today?\" We've been using the kits during our art time to learn basic crochet techniques like chaining and single stitching. Students are following patterns, practicing their counting, and watching their plush creations slowly take shape.\r\nOne memorable moment came when a student who normally struggles with focus completed their first full row of stitches and proudly exclaimed, \"I didn't think I could do this, but I did!\" It was a beautiful blend of art, math, and personal growth. We talked about how following steps in order and practicing patterns relates to what we do in both math and engineering. The sense of accomplishment on their faces has been incredible to witness.\r\nThanks to your generosity, our classroom has become a space where creativity and STEM come together in a fun and meaningful way.
