Reading changes everything. At LearnUp, we teach struggling readers—including students with or without a diagnosis of dyslexia—to read at grade level or beyond in about half the time of most other programs. This #GivingTuesday, we’re asking for your help to raise $15,000 to give 10 students in underserved communities the chance to gain the confidence and skills they need to succeed. Every dollar you give helps provide high-quality, research-based tutoring that turns reading struggles into stories of success. Let's write more success stories for LearnUp students. Help us reach this goal by donating today!  

Did you know that most teachers spend at least $500 each year to fund their classroom environment? We purchase snacks, school supplies, classroom decorations, books, organizational equipment, and supplementary curriculum, among other things. In my third year of teaching, I realized that being a teacher didn't have to mean going broke to fund my classroom. I started using programs like DonorsChoose and AdoptAClassroom.org to help me with classroom expenses and projects for my students. I advise both new and experienced teachers to create accounts on these platforms and share them with their friends. These platforms have allowed me to tap into my personal and professional networks to ask for resources. I've found that there are always people willing to support teachers. Like most educators, I can always use a helping hand, and I've found that many are happy to help. Sometimes it's our relatives and friends, and other times it's an anonymous donor or an organization. I've had tremendous success using these platforms over the years, and I'm very grateful that they exist to help teachers. If you're a teacher or you know one who is about to spend a lot of money at Lakeshore for the "biggest sale of the year," please consider signing up for an AdoptaClassroom account first. Then, share your page link with people who know you. The worst thing they can do is ignore it, and the best thing they can do is donate or share your link on their social media timelines. #backtoschool #elementary #education #teachers

Teachers play such an important role in shaping the minds of our future generations. Take a moment this week to show appreciation for all the hard work and dedication they put into their job every day!

Additionally, you can donate directly to classrooms to help provide necessary supplies for students. Just ask your nearest school, teacher friends, or send me a message!

🌟 Tips for a Successful Back-to-School Transition 🌟 🎯Establish a Routine 🕰️: Gradually reintroduce a school-year routine a few weeks before school starts. Set consistent wake-up and bedtime schedules to help children adjust their internal clocks and ease the transition back to school. 🎯Review Academic Material 📚: Spend some time each day reviewing key concepts from the previous school year. This can include reading, math exercises, or educational games. It helps refresh their memory and sets a solid foundation for the upcoming year. 🎯Organize School Supplies ✏️: Get a head start on school supply shopping and involve your child in the process. Organizing their supplies and setting up their study area at home can create excitement and a sense of readiness for the new school year. 🎯Discuss Goals and Expectations 🎯: Have a conversation with your child about their goals and expectations for the upcoming school year. Encourage them to set personal and academic goals, and discuss any concerns or excitement they might have. This helps them mentally prepare and feel more in control.

Good Monday Morning! We are kicking off our ALL IN FOR KIDS: A Week of Giving campaign today, and invite you to follow along with us on social media throughout this week. We will be sharing more about our programs and how CIS is supporting students to thrive and achieve their goals. ☑️🎓 One of the challenges in our schools today is the significant rise in chronic absenteeism in the wake of the pandemic. Last year nearly 15 million students across the U.S. were chronically absent (missing 18+ days of school). The numbers are similar in Charlotte, with more than 1 in 4 students identified as chronically absent. Chronically absent students cannot succeed if they are not in school. The real reasons kids are absent are numerous and often complex and misunderstood. CIS works hand-in-hand with parents, families, and teachers to help connect students to resources they need to address their attendance challenges and other obstacles keeping them from success. When CIS is present in schools, 99% of our students stay in school. 👉Learn more at cischarlotte.org/aifk-2024, and thank you for joining us to be All In For Kids! #communitiesinschools #cis #cischarlotte #AllinforKids #beingpresentmatters #weekofgiving #donate #nonprofit

As we reflect on the incredible impact teachers have on our lives, it's essential to take a moment to appreciate their hard work and dedication. They shape our future, inspire us to dream big, and empower us with knowledge. Today I will be selecting a local teacher from an elementary school in Greenville County to celebrate! Join me on this journey to celebrate educators around the globe. Here are a few ways you can give back: 1. **Volunteer Your Time**: Offer to help in classrooms, tutor students, or assist with school events. 2. **Donate Supplies**: Teachers often spend their own money on classroom supplies. Consider donating items or funds to help them stock up. 3. **Share Your Skills**: If you have a particular skill or expertise, host a workshop or provide mentorship to both teachers and students. 4. **Advocate for Support**: Engage with local educational initiatives and advocate for resources and funding for our schools. Let’s make a positive difference in the lives of those who dedicate themselves to educating our future generations. Together, we can create a ripple effect of kindness and support. How do you plan to give back to teachers this year? Share your thoughts and ideas in the comments! #CommunityService #SupportTeachers #GiveBack #EducationMatters #EmpowerEducators
