We had a little issue getting our cleaner, but it finally made it today. I know to some this project might just seem like an unimportant list of basic needs. Since our school is funded differently than our feeder schools, we have to look outside of the box for help. Something just as little as toilet paper or tissue can help to determine if our students have good day. Since all of our students have been removed from their normal school settings, we have to work very hard to make sure that they have the same education as they left. Part of this also means that we show them that just because they are no longer in their schools, they are still important. Thank you so much for helping us to enforce this message. With cold and flu season around the corner, you do not know how much we appreciate these gifts.","fullyFundedDate":1760021485105,"projectUrl":"project/please-give-us-a-happy-and-clean-school/9421756/","projectTitle":"Please Give Us A Happy and Clean School Year!","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Salter","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2247433_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1769003437638","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/elsalter"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_10040","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":25,"numTeachers":2,"percentFrplEligible":80,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":40,"percentWhite":34,"percentIndigenous":4,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"12.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":28.4,"schoolId":10040,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about C.P.
