These make using Chromebooks much easier and all of my students (and my para who uses a Chromebook) request them as soon as they walk in the door. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, the classroom tablet has allowed me to work more with my students, as I am not constantly getting up and rushing to my desktop to unlock an assignment or provide an answer check. I have also allowed a few of my students to use the tablet when they needed a little motivation to get to work. This worked amazingly well. \r\n\r\nI am truly grateful, as are my students, for your kindness and generosity.

For many of them, just getting to school every day is an accomplishment. Over the years, I've learned that when students feel seen, supported, and valued, their whole attitude toward learning can change.\r\n\r\nThis year, our school started an effort to recognize and celebrate students for their consistency and growth, not just their test scores. I've seen firsthand how something as simple as acknowledging effort can make a huge difference. Students who used to struggle with attendance are showing up more regularly. They're more engaged in class, more confident, and more willing to take risks academically.\r\n\r\nOne of my students, who had missed weeks of school last year, now hasn't missed a single day this quarter. When I asked what changed, they told me, \"It just feels good to know that people notice when I try.\" That's what this program is about creating a culture where effort is noticed and progress is celebrated.\r\n\r\nWhat's been most powerful is watching the sense of community grow. Students encourage each other, celebrate small wins, and take pride in being part of something positive. It's not just improving attendance—it's improving morale, motivation, and relationships across our campus.\r\n\r\nThis initiative has reminded all of us that when students feel appreciated for showing up and doing their best, they rise to meet higher expectations. The impact goes far beyond grades or rewards—it's about helping them believe in themselves again.","fullyFundedDate":1755568060510,"projectUrl":"project/attend-to-ascend-incentives-for-achieve/9467010/","projectTitle":"Attend to Ascend: Incentives for Achievement","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hall/Suggs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8471059_orig.jpg?crop=1284,1284,x0,y149&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1733789829417","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8471059"},{"teacherId":9613024,"projectId":9620866,"letterContent":"The addition of the laminator and lamination film has transformed how resources are used in our classroom. Task cards and group activities are now durable, reusable, and able to withstand daily handling, which has saved time and allowed students to focus more on learning rather than worrying about fragile materials. The page protectors have helped keep interactive notebooks and online learning guides neat and organized, giving students a reliable way to engage with content. With pens readily available, every student has been equipped to participate fully without interruptions. These supplies have not only boosted organization and engagement but have also built a sense of confidence in my students, knowing they always have dependable tools and materials for learning.","fullyFundedDate":1757505480695,"projectUrl":"project/pens-protectors-and-papers-oh-my/9620866/","projectTitle":"Pens, Protectors, and Papers, Oh My!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Domingue","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9613024_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y409&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1745332355459","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9613024"},{"teacherId":10042613,"projectId":9376142,"letterContent":"I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your generous support of our project, which provided much-needed cabinets, school supplies, and individual storage for my students at Rosenwald Learning Center.\r\n\r\nThanks to your contributions, each of my students now has their very own personal task box—a space where they can store their learning materials, tools, and projects. This has had a tremendous impact on our classroom environment. Not only are all of our supplies now organized and secure, but students have also gained a greater sense of ownership and responsibility for their materials.\r\n\r\nThe new storage cabinets have transformed the way we manage our classroom. With a dedicated place for everything, we spend less time searching for supplies and more time focused on learning. Our classroom feels calmer, more structured, and more conducive to engaged, independent work.\r\n\r\nThis project has truly helped create a learning environment that supports growth, organization, and independence—qualities that are essential for student success.

The materials have already been a huge help! Some of the resources haven't been used yet, as the material they cover in the curriculum will be later in the year. For example, the owl pellets will be used in November when we go over the food chains of the world. It was a wonderful thing to receive all the cleaning products, the microfiber cloths, and the Lysol. Unfortunately, 2 weeks into the school year, we had a high level of COVID-19 and flu-like sickness among staff and students. The supplies came in very handy, and it was the perfect time. \r\n\r\nI know that sometimes teenagers aren't the tidiest of people, but I've been very impressed with them wiping down their desks and cleaning the screens of their Chromebooks with the microfiber cloths. The students have also enjoyed a new 'approach' I used this school year. They each have their own offices (desks) and supplies in a small pouch. They routinely have 'interviews' and assessments to see how they are keeping their offices. I believe they are truly learning how to have pride in their academics and transition services.","fullyFundedDate":1756941213422,"projectUrl":"project/tools-for-transition-supporting-student/9532124/","projectTitle":"Tools for Transition: Supporting Students After School Consolidation","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Domingue","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9613024_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y409&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1745332355459","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9613024"},{"teacherId":8471059,"projectId":9430233,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, our classroom has been transformed into a more inclusive, calming, and supportive space for every student who walks through the door. The new materials have helped us create the kind of environment where students—especially those who are neurodivergent or face daily challenges—feel safe, seen, and empowered to learn in their own unique ways.\r\n\r\nThe executive functioning workbooks have become a staple during our morning routines, helping students build organization and planning skills in a structured, low-stress way. One student, who often struggled with starting his day, now proudly opens his workbook and walks me through his daily goals—something he was once too anxious to even try. The SEL materials have sparked deep, reflective conversations, and we're seeing students make real connections between their emotions and their behavior.\r\n\r\nThe calm corner has become a peaceful retreat for students who need to reset during the day. It's stocked with fidgets, visual aids, and breathing prompts, and students are learning to self-regulate and return to learning with renewed focus. One of the most beautiful moments came when a student asked another if they'd like to take a break together in the calm corner and do breathing exercises—completely unprompted. It's these small, powerful changes that show us the impact of your support.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, my students were amazed. Their eyes lit up as we unpacked everything together. \"This is for us?\" one asked in disbelief. There was so much joy, gratitude, and genuine excitement—it felt like the classroom finally reflected who they are and what they need.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we're integrating these tools into our social-emotional learning projects, using weekly reflection journals and community-building activities to keep strengthening the skills we've started developing. Our next step is to help students track their own emotional growth and set personal goals using the materials you've helped provide.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, we're building more than just academic knowledge—we're building confidence, self-awareness, and resilience. Thank you for being part of that growth.","fullyFundedDate":1750879973758,"projectUrl":"project/the-wonder-within/9430233/","projectTitle":"The Wonder Within","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hall/Suggs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8471059_orig.jpg?crop=1284,1284,x0,y149&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1733789829417","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8471059"},{"teacherId":2659652,"projectId":8770874,"letterContent":"The students have been absolutely over the moon with the math manipulatives. Because some of them are fidget toys, they are constantly using them while doing other work and exposing themselves to the times tables (as well as division, addition and subtraction). They really enjoy playing with the fractional meals, too. \r\n When we got the box and opened it, they were all excited to play with them. For days, they found every excuse to mess with them. Then, we started doing multiplication activities. At first, they were using them a lot. With time, they started to use them less (though they still play with them). \r\n At this point, we will continue to use them in mini-lessons and activities to reinforce multiplication (and addition, subtraction and division). I plan on targeting fractionals a little more in the new year. They are still a little uncomfortable, but their comfort levels are improving every day. \r\n The best thing about this is that my students are not as likely to shy away and shut down when challenged. This is our biggest obstacle for our students.","fullyFundedDate":1726416188633,"projectUrl":"project/math-fluency-towards-financial-literacy/8770874/","projectTitle":"Math Fluency Towards Financial Literacy for Workers of the Future","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Karas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2659652_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1463065004213","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/carly-karas"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44774","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":351,"numTeachers":14,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":25,"percentWhite":56,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"25.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":50.0,"schoolId":44774,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Rosenwald High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Rosenwald High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/bay-county-school-district/rosenwald-high-school/44774"}
