While it may seem like a small gesture, it made a big impact.\r\n\r\nWe have nearly 700 students in our building, and MCAS testing can be overwhelming and stressful for many of them. Thanks to your support, we were able to give each student a piece of candy attached to a personalized, encouraging message on the second day of testing for ELA, math, and science. These small tokens reminded our students that they are cared for, that we believe in their abilities, and that we want them to put forth their very best effort.\r\n\r\nTeachers and students alike shared their gratitude for this thoughtful gesture. It lightened the atmosphere during testing days, gave students a smile when they needed it most, and reinforced the message that their hard work matters.\r\n\r\nYour generosity helped us create a moment of encouragement during a stressful time, and for that we are truly grateful.

Colored printers are hard to find here and to be able to have one right in our classroom is awesome! It has made prep easier and more interesting! \r\nMy students particularly love the Middle School Social Cards.
