The supplies and study hall success tools you provided are already making a meaningful impact in my classroom for students with disabilities, and they will also be shared with other teachers and classrooms in our school who are in need. Your donation extends far beyond my room, it helps strengthen our whole learning community.\r\n\r\nFor my students, having access to the right supplies makes a huge difference. Students with disabilities often face additional barriers to learning, and something as simple as having materials ready to go can remove stress and create space for success. These resources help students stay organized, build confidence, and feel motivated during study hall time. I've seen them become more engaged, more willing to try, and proud to take ownership of their work because they now have what they need.\r\n\r\nYour generosity also helps me support my colleagues. Many classrooms in our school have limited resources, and being able to share these supplies allows more students to feel included, prepared, and supported. Together, we are building not just stronger study halls, but a stronger school environment where students and teachers know they are not alone.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students with disabilities, my colleagues, and me.

The content I teach is so much more meaningful if students can see it , talk about it together, and then decide for themself. With your generous donation, this is an even easier task. We do many simulations and station rotations to keep students engaged and active. These tasks are so much better if students can also learn organization. With the caddies and sticky notes, students can easily move from station to station, add their ideas to a prompt or a visual, read the ideas of others, have discussions, ask questions, and then collaborate to deeper understanding. Students use individual whiteboards to get their own thoughts out in a safe way before committing anything to an assignment- with school supplies so limited the Expo markers make this task easier for them to learn self sufficiency. These small changes have elevated their confidence and their ability to process difficult materials without fear.
