A foundation in memory of Wesley Belisle
This year, Green Acres Elementary School in Manchester, NH became the home of two Autism kindergarten classroom. They were in desperate need of some items to support these classrooms, so Wesley’s Way Foundation was able to help out. We hope the students in these classrooms have a great school year!
For the sixth year in a row, Wesley’s Way Foundation has chosen once again to help purchase backpacks and school supplies for NH children through the Boys & Girls Club’s “Pack a Pack” drive for 2025.
With a goal of improving literacy and education, Wesley’s Way is proud to support this drive as it helps improve the lives of school children throughout NH.
Wesley’s Way Foundation was able to help purchase art supplies for a classroom at Bartlett Elementary School in Goffstown, NH. This donation reaches 180 students in grades 1-4. Below is a description from Lisa Blanchette, the Art Teacher at Bartlett:
Students can either work with the “demo of the day” or explore independently in the center of their choice. They are encouraged to work as artists, developing their own ideas and interests. Bartlett students have embraced this approach, enjoying the freedom to express their creativity. A highlight is our new “3D Design Center,” which has quickly become a favorite. Before this year, students had limited exposure to three-dimensional art, creating mainly two-dimensional pieces due to a lack of an art room. In the 3D Design Center, students use recycled materials to create sculptures and “inventions,” promoting skills like problem-solving, collaboration and measuring. The results have been impressive, with creations ranging from robots to buildings and animals.

We hope that these items will allow the students to show their creativity and artistic abilities!

These books will allow Green Acres to begin building a library of decodable readers so students, no matter their instructional level, will have access to texts that will reinforce the skills being taught. Students can now spend time daily reading connected text that affords them opportunities to practice their word recognition skills.
We wish all the students good luck in their reading adventures!
