These specfiic shop stools can withstand the day to day exertion and fast paced energy in our classroom. They also fill a need schoolwide that is highly valued as it impacts every single student (even staff!). None of that would have been possible without your generous donations. \r\n\r\nAs soon as these new stools came in, students expressed sentiments such as: \"wow!, \"these are so nice!\", \"they're so comfy!\", etc. I told them all of these nice stools were provided through generous donations such as yours. \r\n\r\nOn top of being more dependable and reliable furniture, these provide structure and our classroom studio habits and routines. Each stool is labeled with a color that belongs to a specific table with that same color, and every color is assigned a job that keeps our classroom running smoothly. It's a very intuitive way for student to do the heavy lifting with classroom management in our room. With these new stools, they have done a beautiful job with that. We can confidently say that every student that comes through my classroom has a sturdy seat at the art table! From our students, they say \"thank youuu!!!\".","fullyFundedDate":1757259735611,"projectUrl":"project/every-artist-needs-a-seat-help-complete/9539637/","projectTitle":"Every Artist Needs a Seat: Help Complete Art Stools Set","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Loeffler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9609692_orig.jpg?crop=337,337,x0,y51&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723214124170","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9609692"},{"teacherId":8617575,"projectId":8817665,"letterContent":"Students struggle every day with various obstacles that affect their learning abilities.
