Your gift is making it possible for my students to experience the exciting challenge of running a business—right here in our classroom!\r\nWith your support, we created an interactive, hands-on business simulation where students work together to earn classroom \"money\" for demonstrating good work, teamwork, class chores and positive behavior. Using the play money sets you've funded; students have the opportunity to \"purchase\" classroom items while practicing customer service skills.\r\nAll of the business classes have the chance to participate but the accounting students get to record all earnings and expenditures and see how the accounting process works. They write receipts, track every transaction, and apply real accounting principles to calculate totals and, ultimately, determine their profit. What better way to see the formula Revenues – Costs = Profit?\r\nThis project is fun, practical, and a memorable lesson in financial literacy, business operations, and responsibility. Because of your generosity, my students will leave this class with skills they can carry into their future education, careers, and daily lives.\r\nOn behalf of my students and myself, thank you for making this engaging and educational experience possible.

The supplies you provided us were so useful. We were able to create scale models of our theatre, and create our individual sets for our competition.

The tools what you donated were especially helpful. 1/4\" is pretty small, so the Exacto blades really helped! Box cutter and scissor just couldn't get the cuts that we needed. \r\nFrom the teacher: Thank you so very much for donating to our projects. With the correct tools and supplies, the student were able to build the 1/4\" scale models of their designs. When the students first saw the supplies, they were a bit overwhelmed. They were happy to use professional level equipment and supplies to build their sets.
