Wish Delivered: Classroom Set-up
Teacher Andrea Hemmert says “These items will help me because I am a first year teaching. The teacher that was before me left a lot of old (and I mean from the 80's old) things that are not relevant to my students now. I would love to have all these items, especially the easel and the paper organizer the most because I need something to put my big books on, and the paper organizer will give my students a place to put their finished work in."

Wish Delivered: Rocketry Supplies such as 3D Printers, filaments, toolkits, and more.
Teacher Jeremy Green says “Students in the rocketry class will be able to print parts for original design components of competition rockets. This will enable students to work through the design and engineering process to see how real engineers in aerospace handle and solve problems. Students in the geology classes will be able to print models of different geologic formations in order to make better comparisons between formations that are too far to be visited in person or are in locations that can't be visited. Students conducting physics experiments can use the printers to design different tools that will enable them to reduce human error in experiments.”
