They are truly helping my students succeed by helping them to be so much more organized. \r\n\r\nMany times, high school freshmen struggle with the transition to a new school. And they struggle with the class load. So, being able to give them supplies to keep them organized is such a boon to their success. They can see how organized people stay organized and that model is very helpful.\r\n\r\nBeing able to give them the supplies to follow through with the model has been great.

They want to keep reading!

I thank you for sharing this vision with me.\r\n\r\nThroughout this swim season, the Science Park HS Swim Team has seen first year swimmers gain the confidence and skills to compete in meets, branch out into new races and strokes, and compete at high stakes championship meets like the Essex County Conference. All the while, the swimmers maintained high GPAs and actively participated in other clubs and academic programs. Even more importantly, the swimmers had fun and enjoyed their season. \r\n\r\nAll of these accomplishments and moments are in part due to your contribution to these students' experience this year.
