I hope that as you look at the photos you realized that what you see is only a fraction of the impact that you are having on my students. Your permanent markers have helped 6th graders create designs for their faux stained glass projects and outlined their Amate (bark paper) inspired landscapes, 7th graders create their designs for silkscreen printing, and 8th graders outlining their sign language hands contour line drawing. \r\n\r\nYour donations provided sketchbook making materials that have supported my students through out the entire semester. In the photos is an example of of sketchbooks that are used in all 6 classes across grade levels for sketchbook drawing bell ringers, notes, and brainstorming. \r\n\r\nFinally the disinfecting wipes have been so helpful in cleaning up after classes and keeping down the spread of illness. I have noticed there have been less children out of school and I myself have not caught a cold once. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for supporting my students not only have you supported 175 of my students this semester, but the supplies have been carefully managed and will help support the approximately 180 students that I will teach in the spring semester. Thank you for your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1758221467596,"projectUrl":"project/art-room-supplies-for-assignments-and-t/9626611/","projectTitle":"Art Room Supplies for Assignments, and to Keep Students Healthy","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Beasley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10186643"},{"teacherId":9133249,"projectId":9494470,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity and support of our classroom. Because of you, my students now have access to materials that truly make a difference in their daily learning experience. Items like laminating sheets, colored ink, adhesive labels, pencils, electric sharpeners, a digital clock, and disinfecting wipes may seem small on their own, but together they have had a big impact on how smoothly our classroom runs.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting items for my students has been the adhesive labels placed directly on their desks. These are used to add individualized sentence starters during group discussions, which has helped students feel more confident sharing their ideas. Students enjoy having something just for them, and these labels will also be reused for quick checks, vocabulary practice, and other learning tasks. The colored ink and laminating sheets allow me to print clear, high-quality visuals that can be reused throughout the year, giving students consistent access to readable diagrams, models, and reference materials.\r\n\r\nThe digital clock has helped students become more aware of time and better manage transitions and tasks, building responsibility and focus. The disinfecting wipes have also been essential in helping us keep desks, materials, and shared spaces clean, creating a safer and more comfortable learning environment.\r\n\r\nYour support has made a meaningful difference in my students' confidence, organization, and engagement. I am truly grateful for your generosity and for investing in our classroom and our learners.","fullyFundedDate":1758202801170,"projectUrl":"project/prepared-for-learning/9494470/","projectTitle":"Prepared For Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9133249"},{"teacherId":10186643,"projectId":9619247,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating for this project. Students got to learn about how silkscreen printing is used for high art and in the clothes that we wear. We also learned about job opportunities as a silkscreen printer.\r\n\r\nThe students were so engaged in the lesson knowing that their design might be one of designs that would be used on the bandanas. They were practically bouncing when we started the tie dye process. Each student was so thrilled when they pulled the silkscreen off to reveal the design. They were even eager to learn how to use an iron to set the design, because they wanted to take them home so badly. Later, I had so many teachers throughout the school telling me how the kids were showing off the bandanas that they had made in art class. The few that allowed me to borrow them to display for the Connect Night (Mid-term report night) got all kinds of positive reviews from parents. \r\n\r\nAgain, I thank you. Seeing my students succeed and feel successful is a wonderful thing. I hope you are fulfilled in knowing that your support has created a lasting, memorable experience for my students, and that you enjoy seeing some of their work in the pictures attached to this post.","fullyFundedDate":1757021475108,"projectUrl":"project/bandanas-for-silkscreen-printing/9619247/","projectTitle":"Bandanas for Silkscreen Printing","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Beasley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10186643"},{"teacherId":10223654,"projectId":9650222,"letterContent":"The contribution of reeds to the band classroom has been a huge benefit for the clarinet and saxophone students. These instruments cannot be played AT ALL without a working reed. Despite our best efforts at caution, middle school students are known to break a reed every once in a while. And even if they are very careful and do not chip it, reeds should be replaced regularly.\r\n\r\nIt is not only important that students have a working reed, but regular rotation and replacement allows them to consistently play with their best possible sound. Although students do purchase their own reeds, the classroom supply guarantees that they will be able to access a fresh reed if they do not have one.\r\n\r\nThank you!","fullyFundedDate":1756514591159,"projectUrl":"project/2025-2026-reedsfor-all-clarinet-and/9650222/","projectTitle":"2025-2026 Reeds!...For All Clarinet and Saxophone Students!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Wichowski","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10223654_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y304&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756150186089","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10223654"},{"teacherId":8897841,"projectId":7083550,"letterContent":"I send my sincere gratitude to you all.

This project has been like the gift that keeps on giving. \r\n\r\n\r\nWe are thankful for the essentials that were provided. The essentials gave me the opportunity to replenish supplies while providing a clean space and nutritious snacks.
