“I wanted to thank you once again for funding my grant titled “Where in the World”. My second grade students have enjoyed using the maps to locate various places in the world. On the United States map, the students located the state of Arizona where the Grand Canyon is found, which we have talked about several times this year. They also found the state of Washington, which we connected to a text we read in our reading books. Students also found the Mississippi River and of course, Virginia, as well as other land features.
On the world map, we located the United States, Canada, Mexico, the equator and hemispheres. It was really exciting to locate places that were connected to some of my students such as India, Australia, and Italy. I think the highlight of using the maps was being able to draw on them with the dry erase markers. The inflatable globes were helpful when we compared the Pacific Ocean on our maps versus on the globe.
My students were definitely engaged while having fun learning about our world using these new resources that were put in their hands. Again, your generous donation is greatly appreciated.”

“Thank you again for awarding my grant request for the 25-26 school year.

The Oceanography class traveled to Back Bay Wildlife Refuge on May 13th to complete a hands-on, in-field lab.

Items purchased with grant monies were used throughout the lab at the different stations as follows:
- Binders: Contained the lab sheets, labs supplies, and reference tables/directions for the day
- Water sampler on pole: Used to collect water samples for water testing
- Water monitoring kit: Allowed for chemical testing (ammonia, iron, oxygen, phosphate, and pH levels)
- Salinity refractometer: Used to determine salinity levels of the Back Bay and ocean waters
- Marking Flags: Used to diagram the parts of the beach face

As you can see in the pictures, we had a beautiful day for conducting our lab. And, as many of the items are not consumables, oceanography students next year will be able to have this hands-on experience as well.”

Because of your support, moments like these are happening in our schools every day. From musical performances to singing and dance, students are stepping into the spotlight with confidence and creativity! 🎤✨

Thanks to grant-funded equipment—like these speakers—schools are able to host engaging, student-centered events like this incredible talent show at Hardy Elementary. Opportunities like this don’t just showcase talent… they help build confidence, encourage expression, and create lasting memories.

As one of our school teachers shared:
“This show would not have been possible without these speakers.”

Thank you for helping us bring learning to life in meaningful ways for our students! đź’™

At the Education Foundation, we believe every child deserves the chance to play, explore, and belong. đź’™

Through Ms. Rowland’s “Accessible Adventures” grant, we’re proud to help bring inclusive outdoor play equipment to CAES—creating spaces where all students can learn, grow, and have fun together.

Seeing these smiles in action is exactly why we do what we do. This equipment is more than a playground—it’s a place for connection, confidence-building, and joyful memories for every child.

Thank you to our supporters for helping us make a lasting impact in the lives of students across our community! 🌟
