The materials funded through DonorsChoose have allowed us to create meaningful incentives, engaging learning spaces, and consistent reinforcement systems that motivate students to make positive choices every day. Teachers report fewer disruptions, stronger cooperation, and increased student ownership of behavior expectations, while students feel more recognized, supported, and excited to participate in our PBIS celebrations. These resources have helped us create a more equitable environment where every child has access to the tools and rewards that encourage success, and the impact is evident in the confidence, responsibility, and pride our students now demonstrate throughout the school. Your support has strengthened our ability to nurture a positive, safe, and encouraging learning environment, and we are deeply grateful for the lasting impact you have made on our students.","fullyFundedDate":1757528370645,"projectUrl":"project/positive-behavior/9654837/","projectTitle":"Positive Behavior","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Archibald","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3747327"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_17697","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":343,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":80,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"15.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":73.3,"schoolId":17697,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Barrett Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Barrett Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/alabama/birmingham-city-schools/barrett-elementary-school/17697"}
