Students who come from lower-income families were especially relieved and excited to see the delivery boxes of school supplies.

Having the basic materials they need helps them feel on equal footing with their peers, lowering their stress and allowing them to focus on learning rather than worrying about what they lack. Even simple snacks like Capri Sun and Goldfish Crackers make a tremendous difference, providing nourishment and comfort to students who may not always have enough to eat.\r\n\r\nYour donations also brought joy and connection to our classrooms through games like Hues and Cues, Wormholes, and The Great Dalmuti. These activities provide a welcome break from lessons and encourage positive peer interactions. Hues and Cues has quickly become a favorite, especially because students of all ability levels can play together. It is often the first activity chosen when classwork is completed, fostering both fun and inclusion.

The girls have embraced these tools with enthusiasm, challenging themselves to push harder each day and encouraging one another during every session.\r\n\r\nOne of the highlights has been the pink pennies—an instant favorite among the team!

The new cornhole game was a popular centerpiece at our recent outdoor game night and we also use the game regularly during assemblies, which provides a fun outlet that encourages students to interact and build positive relationships. The tarp team building game was used at an assembly as a competition between the grades. This resulted in much laughter school wide. \r\n\r\nThe conversation cubes were a fantastic tool to start the new school year. The cubes provided my students and myself a low-pressure way to get to know each other and create a welcoming environment. I feel that students left my classroom that first week of school with a feeling of acceptance, belonging, and that they can be successful in math class this year. I shared the cubes with the other colleagues in my department and they enjoyed using them as well. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, the coloring books and felt tip pens allow my students to de-stress and focus. The act of coloring is a simple yet powerful way for them to unwind and step away from academic pressures. \r\n\r\nYour contribution went beyond just providing supplies; your donation shows our students that their well-being is a top priority.
