We were closing a unit on animals and learned briefly about Jane Goodall. Students were excited to see a book about the woman we learned was an advocate for wildlife. The students have especially loved reading about their favorite sports players. Your donation has not only supported their learning but has also inspired many of them to read more on their own, showing a new enthusiasm for both reading and science.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and generosity.
