Your kindness will make a meaningful difference in the daily lives of our students, and we are truly grateful for your investment in their health, happiness, and well-being.\r\nAs a Physical Education teacher, I see every day how important movement and play are for children. Recess is much more than just a break from the classroom—it is a time for students to build friendships, learn teamwork, develop confidence, and release energy in positive and healthy ways. For many students, recess is the highlight of their school day.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, our students will now have access to a variety of engaging equipment such as volleyballs, playground balls, tether balls, soccer goals, hula hoops, cones, and other activity materials that will encourage all students to participate and stay active. These resources will help create an inclusive environment where every child can find an activity they enjoy and feel connected to their peers through play.\r\nYour generosity is giving our students opportunities to move, explore, cooperate, and thrive together. You are helping us create a school environment where students feel supported not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well.\r\nThank you for believing in our students and for helping make recess more active, joyful, and meaningful for every child. Your kindness will be felt on our playground every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1771029359677,"projectUrl":"project/get-moving-recess-the-way-it-should-be/9851028/","projectTitle":"\"Get Moving!

Celebrating your birthday at school should definitely be one of them. On the morning of a student's birthday they walk in to find a birthday certificate and small gift on their desk. Their chair is decorated and they are the special student of the day. These small gestures are enough to make a student feel truly seen. They know they belong, are loved and belong. Through your generosity my students get to carry these memories with them as they move on through their education. \r\n\r\nI cannot thank you enough for helping me to provide these small touches throughout our school year.

Their excitement grew as they discovered the tricycles were gifts from \"friends\" across America. After a parent assembled them, students beamed with joy during their first rides inside the classroom.\r\n\r\nNext, we are building stamina, independence, and communication skills.

One of the special moments of the year was when I was sitting next to my student who only speaks Chinese and it is hard to communicate. We began building together and he had the biggest smile on his face! We couldn't communicate through words but we could through the activity. \r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw all of the activities and materials provided they were so happy and thrilled to get their hands on them.
