Your generosity has had an immediate and meaningful impact on my students' learning and confidence in mathematics.\r\n\r\nHaving a dedicated class set of calculators ensures that every student has equitable access to essential tools during instruction, practice, and assessments. Students no longer have to worry about borrowing, sharing, or going without a calculator, which allows them to focus fully on problem-solving, reasoning, and understanding mathematical concepts.\r\n\r\nBecause of these calculators, I am able to design lessons that emphasize mathematical thinking rather than computation alone. Students can explore concepts, check their work, and build confidence as they engage with more complex problems. This has been especially impactful for students who may feel anxious in math, as having consistent access to the same tool each day helps build familiarity and reduces stress.\r\n\r\nYour support has helped create a more inclusive and supportive math classroom where all students have the opportunity to participate and succeed. Thank you for investing in my students and empowering them with the tools they need to grow as confident mathematicians.","fullyFundedDate":1762316608339,"projectUrl":"project/calculating-success/9864955/","projectTitle":"Calculating Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Padilla","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8390661_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753312231097","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/dvhs-padilla"},{"teacherId":8644232,"projectId":9134600,"letterContent":"My students are using these supplies every single day.

I have made it clear to all students that they do not need to ask for permission to grab the items they need. To just come in and take what they. \r\n\r\nMy students, and other students who aren't mine, were absolutely shocked at all of the products that have come in. The amount of gratitude and relief I was able to see on their faces makes my heart sing. \r\n\r\nI thank you for your generous donation and support.

Because of your generosity, my students now have access to materials that truly enhance their learning environment and make our classroom a more engaging, organized, and supportive space for everyone.\r\n\r\nThe art supplies you provided allow students to express their thinking visually, revise their work creatively, and engage more deeply in hands-on learning activities. These tools are especially impactful for students who benefit from drawing, color-coding, and visual representation to make sense of their ideas.\r\n\r\nThe dry erase markers and whiteboard erasers are already being used daily for quick checks for understanding, problem-solving, and student collaboration. Having enough supplies means every student can participate confidently without worrying about sharing or running out.\r\n\r\nThe paper folders and envelopes have helped students stay organized and take ownership of their work. They now have designated places to store assignments, reflections, and projects, which supports responsibility and reduces stress around lost materials.\r\n\r\nThe sensory and fidget tools have made a meaningful difference in supporting students' focus and emotional regulation. These small but powerful tools help students manage anxiety, stay engaged during lessons, and feel supported in their learning needs.\r\n\r\nFinally, the glue sticks and staple gun have made classroom projects and displays easier to create, allowing us to showcase student work and build a classroom environment that celebrates their efforts and achievements.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, my students feel valued, prepared, and excited to learn. Your generosity goes far beyond supplies. You've helped to create opportunities, confidence, and a positive learning experience every single day.

Because of your generosity, my students now have access to materials that significantly improve how we collaborate, stay organized, and engage in learning each day.\r\n\r\nThe charging cables have been essential in keeping classroom technology accessible and ready for use. Students are able to participate fully in digital activities, assessments, and research without disruptions caused by low or dead devices. This has allowed lessons to flow smoothly and ensured equitable access to learning tools for all students.\r\n\r\nThe storage pocket chart and organizational materials have helped create clear systems for classroom routines, assignments, and student responsibilities. With visual organization tools in place, students feel more confident navigating expectations and managing their work independently.\r\n\r\nThe Post-it easel pads, poster markers, construction paper, and permanent markers have transformed how students collaborate and share their thinking. These materials allow students to work in groups, model their reasoning, present ideas visually, and engage in discussions that deepen understanding. Being able to display and revisit student work has made learning more interactive and student-centered.\r\n\r\nThe laminating pouches have allowed me to create durable instructional materials, reusable reference tools, and long-lasting student resources. This has made instruction more efficient while also reducing waste and saving time throughout the school year.\r\n\r\nBecause of this project, I am able to design lessons that prioritize collaboration, creativity, and accessibility.

For many, it was their first time wearing dance attire that truly matched the style we were learning about. \r\n\r\n\r\nOne of our most special classroom moments so far has been preparing for our upcoming community performance. We are building accessories and costuming to present the vibrant and colorful traditions of culture through dance. Your support has helped us begin building this visual identity.

As a teacher, one of my greatest hopes is to foster a love of reading and learning in my students. With limited resources, however, building a diverse and engaging classroom library can be a challenge. That's why the donation of books has meant so much—not only to me, but to every child who steps into my classroom.\r\n\r\nEach book brought in through the donation holds the potential to open new worlds for my students. From adventurous tales and historical narratives to science facts and picture books, these new additions have sparked excitement and curiosity. It's not uncommon now to see students eagerly flipping through pages, sharing stories with one another, or asking when they can take a book home to read with their families.\r\n\r\nBeyond the joy of reading, these books have helped create a more inclusive and stimulating learning environment. They provide my students with mirrors to see themselves and windows to understand others—tools that are essential for empathy and growth. The generosity of donors has reminded us that learning is a shared responsibility and that communities thrive when they support one another.\r\n\r\nI am deeply grateful for this gift.
