Special Gathering Space

 

"I was in desperate need of a new rug last year but anything spacious and made specifically for teachers tended to be out of my budget. With my Booster Club funds I was able to get a new rug that really did transform learning that took place there! When it arrived, the class was so excited. We waited until the end of the day and I rolled it out, then they chose their own smiley to sit on. This is one of my favorite memories I’ve had teaching and it wouldn’t have happened with booster club (among hundreds of other experiences, materials and opportunities they have provided all staff with)."

Stocked Classroom Library

 

"I would not have been able to stock my classroom library so well without the support of Booster Club! My students now have access to all 11 genres that they have to read for the 30 book challenge in their own classroom. I feel so lucky to have so much support."

Learning Space of Dreams

"Parents and community members often don't realize that a classroom, even in Eanes, is only required to have desks and chairs. If you look around BCE that isn't what you see. You see cozy reading nooks, fully decorated rooms, truly magical spaces created by our amazing teachers. Those spaces are funded by the BCE Booster Club. They provide funds so teachers don't have to dig into their own pockets to create the classroom of their dreams. They help teachers to make the spaces we expect our children to be educated in. Spaces where they feel safe, comfortable, and ready to learn. When you donate to the BCE Booster Club you are helping to make that happen for your child and others."

Mrs. Peichoto, Kindergarten
