On behalf of the 5 self contained classrooms at Learning Tree, we’d like to give the LPSF a HUGE shoutout of appreciation . Our students have various special needs and this grant has afforded us with more opportunities to work on gross motor skills, turn taking, and sharing goals. Our kids are loving this new playground equipment and it wouldn’t be possible without the support of LPSF. Thank you!
Materials
Hands-Free Scanner
We love using the hands-free scanner at the Woodland Hills Library! Our students are now able to scan their books in and out without touching the scanner (no germ spreading!). Thank you Lawton Public School Foundation for helping our library to be safe and healthy!
Hydroponic Garden
The students have utilized this system to learn about the life cycle of plants, the responsibilities of caring for the system, and the rewards of the system by eating what they grew.
Science Department Donation
MacArthur High School’s science department received more than $4,000 for organs to dissect.
Screen Printing Kits for Art
With these screen printing kits a lot of the anxiety surrounding purchasing supplies for our art classes has been alleviated as we prepare for our first t-shirt fundraiser. Getting to use the screen printers has proven to not only fulfill that fundraising need, but has also been a lot of fun for my students to learn and use. As they have learned the process and seen the results, it has prompted more brainstorming for other things to make and sell to raise fund for art supplies. They are a great asset for our program and will get lots of use every year. We appreciate the Lawton Public School Foundation for providing this opportunity for our art program!
Centers
This grant has helped my student by giving them centers. Students learn through playing so thank so much.
