Thanks to your generosity, I was able to create a special birthday gift for each student this year. These little surprises have quickly become one of their favorite parts of our classroom. On the morning of their birthday, students are greeted with a gift and a personal note, making them feel seen, valued, and celebrated.\r\n\r\nThe new materials have allowed me to create a consistent, meaningful tradition that builds classroom community. One moment that really stood out was when one of my students whispered, \"This is the best birthday I've ever had at school.\" Moments like these remind me just how powerful small acts of kindness can be. These celebrations help foster a sense of belonging and joy, which carry over into their learning and how they treat one another.\r\n\r\nAs we move through the rest of the school year, these birthday surprises will continue to be a bright spot for each child. Your support has helped me make sure that every student feels special and important on their day. Thank you for helping me make our classroom a place where students not only learn but also feel loved and celebrated.","fullyFundedDate":1752671491780,"projectUrl":"project/third-grade-incentives/9315714/","projectTitle":"Third Grade Incentives","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Anderson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8573801"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_130687","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1179,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":61,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":41,"percentWhite":39,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.6,"schoolId":130687,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Bellevue Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Bellevue Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/mississippi/lamar-county-school-district/bellevue-elementary-school/130687"}
