Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 410

First and foremost, I would like to thank Champions for Learning for providing the platform and opportunity for schools to receive funding for exciting and essential curriculum materials, and Neil Musgrove for generously fulfilling this grant. These funds will continue to help our students "shift" their mindsets for years to come :)

With this grant, I was able to purchase a full year subscription to SHIFT bookbox. Each month, our school recieves two books, as well as discussions guides and prompts to help teachers and students delve deeper into each topic covered in an effort to "shift" our mindsets to have a better understanding of the people and world around us. 

The books received so far, as well as the books yet to be received, are shared with students of a variety of ages. Each time a box is delivered, we celebrate in the classrooms with a special unboxing. Multiage lessons based on these books and the thematic resources that come with them from the subscriptions are then carefully curated to share across our campus. After being shared in our classrooms, these books and their companion resources are added to our diversity library for use for years to come.

On behalf of Seacrest Country Day School, we are extremely grateful for this grant and the experiences it has provided for our students and educators. Thank you again to Champions for Learning and Suncoast Credit Union for helping to enrich our school community, teaching practices, and student's lives.
