Teaching is one of the only professions where it's known that those in the field are going to spend their own money on supplies. This is such a part of our culture that teachers can deduct up to $300 in teaching supplies from their taxes -- and almost every teacher spends more than $300/year on teaching supplies. Mrs. Paulson at Braly Elementary is one of those teachers, and thanks to our generous donors, we were able to get her some gift cards to Teachers Pay Teachers, a great resource for timely, modern lessons and resources. Here's what she said:
"Dear Santa Clara Schools Foundation,
Thank you so much for your generous donations to our project. Because of you, I have been able to purchase a variety of teacher-created resources on Teachers Pay Teachers. I have found Social Emotional Learning activities and lessons covering such topics as Integrity, Empathy, and Growth Mindset. I have also been able to purchase English Learner content for my Newcomers who are new to the country and the language. I appreciate having support in covering the many costs that traditionally come out of educators' pockets. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your generosity!
With gratitude,
Mrs. Paulson"
