Pinehurst Elementary is a rural Title 1 school that is in a low socio-economic area; 50-60 percent of its 480 students qualifying for free or reduced lunches.

Wish Delivered: Age Leveled Books
This Wishlist will provide age leveled reading books for Carli Moffit’s classroom; She says, “ I need leveled books to teach reading with. I have some books, but they get too hard, too fast. I would like to purchase Rigby PM readers. These books help teach high frequency words and have several titles for each level. I'm looking to get 50 books with 6 copies of each book. I will have a variety of books to help my students learn to read. As of right now, I have a limited amount of books to use, and I need more books to teach sight words with.”

Wish Delivered: Interactive and Imaginative Play Tools
Teacher Jennifer Piippo says, "My goal is to ignite that flame of imagination and encourage our learners to explore the world around them. The pretend food and store will allow us to work on our writing, math, and social skills. We can also use it to discuss the four food groups and healthy eating choices. Learning is done best through real life experiences and the classroom store will provide a wealth of opportunities!"
