Thank you to all of the parents, guardians and FOJ supporters who have already given so generously this year! Thanks to your generous support of the Annual Fund, FOJ has been able to make grants to support teachers and students to enhance their virtual learning experience.  

One example of this was a grant from FOJ to fund Physics Classroom. The Physics teachers are using what are called Concept Builders in Physics Classroom. This is a responsive interactive tool that students use independently to practice skills they develop in class. It also helps the teachers assess student understanding of concepts by seeing which levels of the Concept Builder students have successfully passed and which ones are providing more of a challenge. Teachers can then re-teach concepts in class and support students during office hours on developing their understanding of these concepts. This tool has been especially useful during remote learning as it’s challenging for teachers to get a true sense of student understanding. 

We appreciate your continued support. Remember to  check if your employer offers a matching option for your gift!  Taking just a few minutes could double your donation!
