Dear Supporters of the D.T. Howard Foundation,
I write to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generosity and unwavering support of the D.T. Howard Foundation. Your contributions have directly improved our school, and thanks to your incredible donations, we have been able to:
- Invest in a brand-new sound system for the gym. During school assemblies, student performances, athletic events, and milestone celebrations, the foundation-funded microphone, speaker, and controller upgrades will transform how our school community connects in our largest gathering place -- the gym. Clearer, more powerful sound ensures that every voice is heard, every performance shines, and every event feels even more special.
- Renew essential software subscriptions like Schoology, Delta Math, and Newsela—programs that are critical to our students’ daily learning. These tools provide interactive lessons, personalized practice, and real-time resources that help students stay engaged, build strong academic skills, and foster a love for learning. Renewing these subscriptions ensures our students continue to have access to the platforms they rely on to succeed both inside and outside the classroom.
- Fund Saturday School, an essential program providing targeted support to help students succeed. Saturday School offers personalized instruction, extra practice, and enrichment opportunities designed to meet students where they are and help them reach their full potential. With this added support, more students are building confidence, mastering key skills, and staying on track for success.
- Sponsor teacher conferences and training opportunities that inspire our educators with new skills, sharper strategies, and deeper knowledge. By investing in professional development, we empower our teachers to bring innovative practices back to the classroom and their colleagues, enriching the learning experience for all.
- Enhance the beautiful mural in the courtyard, creating a vibrant space that inspires, connects, and energizes our entire community. The refreshed mural not only brightens our campus, but also reflects the creativity, spirit, and unity of D. T. Howard and its deep history.
As we close out this year, we reflect on these accomplishments and look forward to the possibilities your support will unlock for our school community. Together, we are improving the Howard of today and investing in its strong future. We could not have achieved these advances without your generous contributions. THANK YOU for supporting our mission and our school.
With gratitude and best wishes for a wonderful summer break
