One of our colleagues needs our help.
A student came to me privately and told me that [he or she] wants to take the AP exam but cannot afford the fee ($57 with waiver). The Peace Club has generously decided to give $25 toward the cause, and Ryan McGinley contributed $5, leaving a balance of $27. I will pay the balance if necessary. I also think this is one of those moments in which a learning community defines itself. I would be grateful if each of you would consider donating a buck or two. If we're short tomorrow I will pay the difference. *UPDATED 6:56* Using the comment thread below to thank people gave me the idea of posting amt. remaining, currently $10. Awesome. I'll post when we hit $57/mission accomplished. Thanks again to those of you who helped out so far.
Thanks for contributing, Rebecca Patterson!
ReplyDeleteThanks for contributing, Vince Cruz!
ReplyDeleteI'll throw in a few bucks. (It'll be in quarters though... That's all I have right now, sorry.)
ReplyDeleteThanks Hannah! Every little bit helps.
ReplyDeleteWe did it! Thanks to those of you who chipped in. An anonymous donor stepped in to cover the last $10. That makes $57: mission accomplished.
