Thanks to your support, we welcomed a brand-new Bye-Bye Buggy, and I can't even begin to describe the happiness it has sparked among our little learners!\r\n\r\nThe moment the buggy arrived, the students' eyes lit up with wonder and excitement. They eagerly watched as we unwrapped the materials, their tiny hands clapping with joy. When it was finally time for our first ride, their laughter and smiles filled the air—it was a priceless moment! For many of our students, this was their first time experiencing such a fun and safe way to explore the outdoors as a group.\r\n\r\nThe Bye-Bye Buggy has become a game-changer in our daily activities. Whether it's taking a peaceful ride around the school to observe nature, feeling the warmth of the sun, or even just waving to familiar faces in the hallways, our students are gaining new sensory experiences that help develop their curiosity and connection to the world around them. These little adventures help reinforce our lessons on community, weather, and the changing seasons, making learning even more interactive and meaningful.\r\n\r\nAs we continue on our learning journey, our next focus is on exploring the outdoors even more—observing animals, identifying colors in nature, and introducing new vocabulary to describe what we see and hear. With the Bye-Bye Buggy, we can now extend our classroom beyond four walls and give our students real-world experiences that nurture their development.\r\n\r\nNone of this would have been possible without you. Your kindness and generosity have made a lasting impact on our students, and for that, we are endlessly grateful. Thank you for being a part of our classroom and for giving our little learners a ride toward new discoveries!","fullyFundedDate":1735682524285,"projectUrl":"project/bye-bye-hallway-distractions/9005801/","projectTitle":"Bye Bye Hallway Distractions","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kibler District Special Education Specialist","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4312757_orig.jpg?crop=4120,4121,x0,y1030&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1695836340544","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4312757"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6704","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":864,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":70,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":18,"percentWhite":67,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":56.6,"schoolId":6704,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sugar Ridge Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sugar Ridge Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/spartanburg-county-school-district-2/boiling-springs-intermediate-school/6704"}
