Because of your kindness and support, we were able to purchase It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover and The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han — two books our members have been so excited to read together!\r\n\r\nYour contribution has made an incredible impact on our club. These books are more than just stories — they've sparked meaningful conversations about relationships, growth, and self-discovery. For many of our members, this is a chance to fall in love with reading all over again and to connect with others who share that same passion.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our discussions are deeper, our meetings are livelier, and our members feel truly seen and supported. You've helped create a space where young readers can explore new perspectives and build a lifelong love of literature.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for your generosity and belief in our club.

They were thrilled to receive them at no cost, and it made the start of our school year smooth and positive.\r\n\r\nThough simple, these folders are essential for staying organized in demanding subjects like Biology and Anatomy & Physiology. For many students, especially those facing challenges, this support helps them stay focused, confident, and on track.\r\n\r\nWe are truly grateful for your generosity and the difference it makes in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1746702483637,"projectUrl":"project/organized-for-success-helping-students/9155304/","projectTitle":"Organized for Success: Helping Students to File it Away","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ostiguy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4477506_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1506018066419","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4477506"},{"teacherId":10045901,"projectId":9384865,"letterContent":"On behalf of my high school chemistry students, thank you so much for your generous donations that made it possible to provide binders and dividers for my junior and senior students. The students were thrilled to find out that such materials were going to be provided to them at no cost, and it made the start to the school year a very happy and easy one for them. \r\n\r\nThese simple yet essential materials play a critical role in helping students stay organized throughout the school year, especially in a subject as demanding as chemistry. For many of these students—particularly those who face academic challenges—having a clear and structured system to manage notes, assignments, and study materials makes a world of difference in their ability to focus, stay on track, and build confidence in a STEM learning environment.\r\n\r\nYour support is especially meaningful for students who are unable to obtain these materials on their own. With your help, they are better equipped to approach their studies with the tools they need to succeed, and they are incredibly grateful for this support. Your kindness not only helps them stay organized but also sends a powerful message that their education matters and that there are people who believe in their potential.

Your support provided essential art supplies that gave my students a unique opportunity to engage with Shakespeare's timeless story in a hands-on and deeply meaningful way.\r\n\r\nWe used the materials you helped fund—paints, markers, craft tools, glitter, feathers, and more—to design and decorate masks that represented important symbols, meanings, and character traits from Romeo and Juliet. Students explored the emotional and thematic layers of the play by using color, texture, and design choices to reflect elements such as love, conflict, fate, loyalty, and identity. For example, one student used opposing color schemes to show the tension between the Montagues and Capulets, and other students used colors and decorations to represent love and loss. \r\n\r\nWhen the supplies arrived, the students were genuinely surprised and incredibly excited. Many couldn't believe they would get to use such high-quality materials, and their enthusiasm during the project was contagious. The classroom was filled with focused creativity, thoughtful discussion, and bursts of pride as students shared their work and explained their symbolic choices.\r\n\r\nThis project not only enriched their understanding of literature—it also allowed them to express themselves artistically and collaborate in new ways. Thank you for making this powerful experience possible. Your generosity truly made a lasting impact.","fullyFundedDate":1748213606248,"projectUrl":"project/faces-of-verona-character-masks-from-sh/9362742/","projectTitle":"Faces of Verona: Character Masks from Shakespeare’s Tragedy","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ponte","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3114846"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_60513","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1335,"numTeachers":96,"percentFrplEligible":47,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":81,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":80.4,"schoolId":60513,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Bristol Plymouth Regional Technical School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Bristol Plymouth Regional Technical School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/bristol-plymouth-regional-technical-school-district/bristol-plymouth-regional-tech-school/60513"}
