Subaru Supports MOMS Classrooms

Six Mount Olive Middle School Teachers Receive AdoptAClassroom Grants

October, 2025

Six Mount Olive Middle School teachers were recently awarded $500 each through the AdoptAClassroom program, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Subaru World of Hackettstown.

AdoptAClassroom is a national nonprofit organization that connects donors and corporate partners with K–12 teachers and schools to help fund classroom needs. The program empowers educators to purchase supplies, learning materials, and tools that directly benefit students, creating more engaging and equitable learning environments.

Thanks to the support of Subaru World of Hackettstown, each Mount Olive Middle School recipient was able to enhance their classroom or program with meaningful resources that will have a lasting impact on students. The grant funds were used in a variety of ways to improve instruction, organization, and student engagement across different subject areas.

The library received a wonderful selection of new books for students, featuring both fiction and nonfiction titles from recent bestseller lists. The new additions were chosen to reflect a variety of reading levels and genres, from thrilling adventures and heartfelt stories to fascinating nonfiction topics that spark curiosity. Students are already excited to explore the shelves and dive into their next great read.

Physical education students will benefit from the addition of new fitness equipment, including plyometric boxes that allow them to practice jump training, improve coordination, and build overall strength. This addition helps make workouts more dynamic and fun while promoting lifelong fitness habits.

Another teacher selected a whiteboard activity table, an interactive workspace that encourages students to brainstorm, problem-solve, and share ideas collaboratively. The table fosters active participation and helps students learn through movement and discussion.

Other teachers invested in classroom supplies such as high-quality pencil sharpeners, colored pencils, tape dispensers, and sturdy folders to support collaborative projects and hands-on learning activities. These practical tools help keep lessons running smoothly and encourage students to work together on creative, engaging assignments.

The six recipients were Kat Vizzone (Librarian), Josh Lindeblad (8th Grade Social Studies), Tom Famularo (Multilingual Learners), Michelle Corazza (MD), Bill Zaccheo (Physical Education), and Michelle Ebel (7th Grade Math).

 

Mount Olive Middle School extends its sincere thanks to Subaru World of Hackettstown and AdoptAClassroom for supporting teachers and helping provide our students with enriching educational experiences!
