Teachers are foundational to student success. We support teachers by empowering them with the resources they need to be effective in the classroom.
Everyday, teachers and administrators go beyond the curriculum, looking for ways to enhance the learning environment for their students. By conducting creative, exciting projects and programs in and out of the classroom, it helps keep students motivated and engaged in lessons.
With your support, we invest in teachers’ and principals’ innovative ideas to create educational experiences that make an impact.

Ought To Be a Law is a student lead service-learning program sponsored by Hillsborough County Public Schools. The Ought To Be a Law program provides students the opportunity to work with the Florida State Legislature in drafting, lobbying, and presenting a real legislative issue in the States 60-day session annually.
The goal of the program is to provide students with a real-world learning environment to take an idea they have crafted as a bill proposal and learn countless real world civics lessons as they work their bill idea through the legislative process.
The bill is about food allergies. The students are asking for certain training on cross contamination and awareness be required for food preparation management. It is a paired down version of what they presented last year.
PROJECT: - Food Allergen disclosures and food safety
This bill is designed to help ensure that food managers are properly trained in food allergen and cross contamination safety. It would provide for a poster on food allergens to be displayed in all food preparation areas where food is prepared for public consumption. The students also reached on to the Red Shoes Non-Profit organization to learn more about the impact of allergens on people with life threatening allergies. They have also taken their work to Washington DC to speak with national non-profit organizations and members of Congress. This bill is the work of students at Sickles High School in Tampa, Florida.

Miles is a transformation school that uses PBIS to help motivate the students to learn. Many of our students struggle with motivation to work on their academics. Negative behaviors can arise from students as they struggle with academics. PBIS helps to reinforce positive behaviors by using a token economy. We use Miles Mustang money to support positive behaviors and academic achievements. Teachers and staff are able to give students Miles Mustang money when the students are on task and/or showing positive behavior. Our teachers use the Mustang Money to incentivize students to read. The students can receive a set amount of mustang money for each book or chapter they complete. Students can use the Mustang Money at the school store or school wide events. Students are able to come to the school store twice a month to purchase items with their Mustang Money. Students are also able to use the money for school wide events that are held monthly. Students are able to purchase the event tickets at the store for a set amount.

As a media specialist, one of my primary goals is ensuring students have access to books. With the outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020 and the subsequent closure of schools, my students lost access to so many important resources including our media center and their classroom libraries. When schools returned to in-person learning, there were still many unknowns about the virus and library access continued to be limited because it was not clear if COVID-19 could be spread through contact with books.
In April and May of 2020, I created book packages for students using books that had been purchased for giveaways the previous year. As I handed them out during the summer, I started thinking of ways I could continue to give students books that they could keep and use to build their own home libraries. Research led me to First Book, a nonprofit dedicated to removing barriers to equitable education. Their online marketplace has a Book Bank where educators with limited budgets can buy brand-new books in bulk for just the cost of shipping and handling.

My goal is to increase the vocabulary and language skills of 3rd grade students so that they can be successful in reading and writing. Students need many hands on resources and books to be engaged and inspired to love reading and writing. This project will serve 4 ELA groups in a Title 1 Transformation school. We have ELL, ESE, and Gifted students in the classes. The goal is for ALL students to grow to each of their fullest potential in the area of reading and writing. This is a critical year for these students and they need to develop strong reading and writing skills to be successful.

My goal is to increase student knowledge and a deeper understanding how our changing Earth affects mankind. I want students to become active learners, engaged in the learning process, in order to gain a better understanding of how air, water, soil, and living things work together as interactive systems. The idea behind EduCaching is to create a technology rich academic environment to support students in the highest levels of excellence. I envision students using theS GPS technology to experience simulations, support problem solving, aid in the collection of data for research, most of all become more engaged in lessons and academic activities.

animals. As the teacher of the lessons they need more in depth knowledge to answer questions and teach the first graders. This cross of grade levels and curriculum initiative is one research shows will improve
engagement, knowledge, and scores.

There's no doubt: teacher turnover affects student achievement. As Burnett Middle School's Literacy Coach, my goal is to attract and keep excellent Literacy educators at Burnett. And I have just the trick! I'm requesting a donation of $440 to use for teacher incentives, note cards, small gifts, raffles, and snacks to nosh on during bi-monthly PLC's, and weekly collaborative lesson planning sessions, etc.
Let's give the Literacy teachers at Burnett something to be excited about and a reason to smile! Burnett's Literacy department does receive a small sum of funds to be used solely for student incentives.
Here's the problem: during the 2022-23 school year, Burnett Middle School's Literacy department vacancies were at an all-time high and created a revolving door of more than 14 substitute teachers (just in the Literacy department!) And students were negatively affected.
The article 'How to Increase Teacher Retention' explained that while teacher attrition is a nationwide concern, 'good teachers who stay deliver the best outcomes for students, fellow teachers, school leaders and the wider community.'

This year we would like to continue expanding our school wide garden club even more. We have over 750 kids from pre-K through grade five that use our garden. Grades 2-5 belong to our garden club. This year we would like to add a new section to study plant adaptions. This section will include succulents, cactus, and other plants that require different environments for us to study their growth. We will also add hydroponics to compare different growth cycles and changes. We plan to add a 'business / finance /market side to our garden club by growing and selling some of our crops as well as using some for 'farm to table' in our cafeteria. We will continue many of our previous plans such as chicks, butterflies, etc...

The project goal is to provide students with a hands-on opportunity to interact with the live growth of plants in the classroom. Students will use hydroponic gardens to plant seeds and then graph, summarize, collaborate, and discuss the plant's growth. These materials will be used this year and for years to come and will provide students with a platform for family discussions, new applications, and real-world connections. This unit will be paired with health, math, and reading units as well, in which students will learn about the advantages of growing food and the benefits of healthy diets.
