The holiday crafting supplies and rock-painting materials you provided made this season truly magical for my students.\r\n\r\nFor many of them, this was their first experience painting kindness rocks, decorating them with bright colors, sparkling details, and meaningful holiday messages. Students carefully designed their rocks to spread cheer around the school and in their own homes—some created \"joy rocks,\" others painted Christmas trees, snowflakes, or messages of hope. It was amazing to watch their ideas come alive on something as simple as a stone.\r\n\r\nThe Christmas craft supplies you funded—Christmas tree ornaments—allowed each student to make a handmade keepsake. Many told me they couldn't wait to give their creations as gifts to parents, siblings, or grandparents. Your support didn't just provide materials; it created moments of pride, kindness, and connection.\r\n\r\nYou helped turn our classroom into a place where students felt inspired, creative, and cared for during one of the most special times of the year.
