Many students shared that they enjoyed the book far more than they expected—and that it inspired them to look at storytelling in new and creative ways.\r\n\r\nRight now, our students are writing their own vignettes modeled after Cisneros' style, exploring their own voices and experiences through this literary form. It has been wonderful to see them connect so personally to the text and to the art of writing.\r\n\r\nThese books will continue to inspire and engage many classes in the years to come.

Because of your donation, our students are now able to view the slides while I walk around the classroom and draw on the slides, which has transformed the way we learn and engage with our lessons. Technology in the classroom isn't just about screens—it's about interactivity, creativity, and opening doors to experiences we couldn't otherwise access. For example, we've been able to explore virtual science labs, collaborate on group projects in real time, and even receive instant feedback that helps students understand and correct their mistakes right away.\r\n\r\nWhat excites our students most is how hands-on and personalized their learning has become. One student who previously struggled with reading has blossomed using a literacy app that adjusts to her pace and celebrates each milestone. Another student, who dreams of being an engineer, has taken to the coding tools with enthusiasm and is now mentoring classmates during tech time.
