I have a very diverse classroom and they love to read books that are about places one or more of them are actually from. I loved the book Big. It is so important for the students to know their own self-worth and understand the impact other's words has on that. It is a wonderful book that sparked a lot of conversations and awareness.","fullyFundedDate":1764606110195,"projectUrl":"project/see-myself-in-a-book/9527889/","projectTitle":"See Myself in a Book","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kivett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8464906"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_96364","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":565,"numTeachers":40,"percentFrplEligible":75,"percentAsian":17,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":17,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":46,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":78.9,"schoolId":96364,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Carnahan Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Carnahan Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/northside-independent-school-district/carnahan-elementary-school/96364"}
