Because of your support, our students are now using their new iPads every day, and the impact has been immediate and inspiring. The devices have quickly become powerful learning tools that are helping students stay motivated, engaged, and confident in their abilities.\r\nOur English Language Learners, in particular, are benefiting tremendously. With the iPads, they now access lessons that meet their individual learning needs in a clear, visual, and interactive way. \r\n\r\nThe iReady program provides personalized reading and math instruction that adjusts to each student's level, allowing them to make steady progress at a pace that feels right for them. Epic has opened up a world of books they are excited to read, helping them strengthen vocabulary and comprehension through stories that capture their interest. Khan Academy is supporting their math development with helpful explanations and practice activities that reinforce key concepts whenever they need them.\r\n\r\nTogether, these tools are helping students close learning gaps, build essential skills, and feel proud of their achievements. They are eager to learn, excited to explore new apps, and motivated by the independence the iPads give them. Every day, I see students making meaningful strides—reading more confidently, solving math problems with a stronger understanding, and taking ownership of their learning.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has made all of this possible. Thank you for investing in our classroom and for believing in the potential of every student.
