The supplies you provided—paper towels, Kleenex tissues, antibacterial soap, index cards, Post-it notes, and disinfecting spray bottles—have made a genuine, measurable difference in creating a cleaner, healthier, and more productive learning environment for my students. Your generosity has not only filled essential gaps but has also helped us reduce viral contamination and promote better daily habits that keep our classroom community thriving.\r\nThis school year, maintaining a sanitary classroom has been more important than ever. The paper towels and spray bottles you donated have become staples in our daily routine. Students now take an active role in wiping down desks, lab tables, and shared materials at the end of each class period. Having these supplies readily available has empowered them to take ownership of their space and has significantly reduced the spread of germs across shared surfaces. It has also allowed me to reinforce important lessons about personal responsibility and public health—skills that extend far beyond the classroom.\r\nThe Kleenex tissues and antibacterial soap have similarly played an essential role in preventing unnecessary illness. High school students are busy, active, and often juggling multiple commitments, and even a minor cold can set them back academically or socially. With tissues and soap available at all times, students are far more likely to practice healthy hygiene habits. They can wash their hands before lab activities, catch sneezes properly, and keep themselves and their peers healthier in the process. These simple preventative steps have helped minimize classroom interruptions and reduce the number of students missing assignments or falling behind due to illness.\r\nOf course, not all contributions were related solely to sanitation. The index cards and Post-it notes have been incredibly useful for instruction. Whether we are conducting quick review activities, organizing group tasks, or setting up interactive lessons, these materials make learning more flexible, visual, and inclusive. In a classroom where students have a wide variety of learning styles, tools like these help me differentiate instruction and keep students engaged. Even these seemingly small supplies contribute to a positive, orderly classroom environment that supports both academic success and well-being.\r\nYour donations do more than simply provide materials—they communicate care, encouragement, and belief in the value of public education. My students notice when adults outside the school community invest in their safety and success. They feel supported, and I am reminded that teaching is never a solitary effort. It takes a network of people who believe in young learners and the environments that help them flourish.\r\nThank you again for your generosity, your kindness, and your commitment to supporting our classroom. Your contributions truly make a difference every single day, and we are deeply grateful for your partnership in creating a safer, cleaner, and more welcoming learning environment. I can also attest that student behavior improves just by providing a clean environment (Your supplies have helped me get my students in the mindset to learn, cooperate, and contribute).\r\nMy best,\r\nWill Cozart","fullyFundedDate":1754863249574,"projectUrl":"project/daily-supplies-for-a-hands-on-classroom/9504416/","projectTitle":"Daily Supplies for a Hands-on Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Cozart","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/will-cozart"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_9157","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":3050,"numTeachers":192,"percentFrplEligible":43,"percentAsian":31,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":22,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":29,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":70.8,"schoolId":9157,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Plano East Senior High School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Plano East Senior High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/plano-independent-school-district/plano-east-senior-high-school/9157"}
