Prescott's Early Childhood classrooms are hoping to purchase one light table and manipulatives to use with both classroom's light tables. These will provide sensory play and help students explore and learn about our different curriculum studies. Students will have access to translucent letters, shapes, building blocks, animal specimens and more! Students can use this during choice time to actively engage in hands on education, access sensory play and work collaboratively with peers. We are requesting $1,035, plus cost reimbursement, to purchase one additional light table and manipulatives for both classrooms. We appreciate your support in providing our little learners access to such a fun and versatile toy in our classrooms!

Irving One Book One Family is a book club that students in grades 6-8 can participate in with an adult family member. Once a month the entire group is given a book. The student and parent read their copy of the book and we gather in the evening one time a month, to discuss the book, participate in other literacy activities, or host guest speakers.
Reading quality literature together with their adult, builds important connections between students, their parents, and school. We create a non-threatening environment of acceptance to hold higher level discussions about this excellent literature. This pushes students and parents to read "outside their comfort zone" and leads to wonderful discussions and diversity of opinions. After our discussion we like to share a light dinner and continue to build our connections with each other.
Funding covers both the purchase of the books as well as helps us provide a light dinner. Our budget helps determine how many students can be served by this group. Right now we have 20 students and their parents in the club. Requesting $2,500 plus cost reimbursement.

Please consider donating to help Sheridan purchase two additional percussion carts for the music room. Percussion carts increase accessibility for all students. They also make transport for concerts much easier! Requesting $500 plus cost reimbursement.
