Your thoughtful gift has truly brightened our space—both literally and figuratively! The cheerful design brings such positive energy to the room, and my students are immediately drawn to the rugs each morning as they begin their day.\r\n\r\nThese rugs have quickly become favorite spots for group work and collaborative learning. My students love gathering together on them to share ideas, discuss stories, and solve problems as a team. Having a comfortable, inviting space encourages cooperation and communication, helping them build important social and academic skills.\r\n\r\nBeyond their practical use, the rugs have created a warm and welcoming environment where every student feels included and valued. Thank you again for helping make our classroom a more joyful and engaging place to learn. Your kindness and support truly make a difference in our students' daily experience.","fullyFundedDate":1759341723048,"projectUrl":"project/gathering-spaces/9562745/","projectTitle":"Gathering Spaces","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Stockslager","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4557529"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_89823","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":583,"numTeachers":44,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":14,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":45,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":12,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":78.4,"schoolId":89823,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Benjamin Chambers Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Benjamin Chambers Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/chambersburg-area-school-district/benjamin-chambers-elementary-school/89823"}
