It was monumental in making our end of grade test carnival a huge success. Children could not believe their eyes when they walked in and saw all of the games, cotton candy, and prizes set up for their enjoyment. This was the culminating activity of a year of hard work. The children could not wait to play the ring toss and football throw games. They loved the ducky prizes. The favorite thing by far was the yummy cotton candy! Children could not wait to partake in some fresh cotton candy. They got to pick the flavor and watch it spin. This was a highlight of the entire year! Children for years to come will benefit from your contribution. Thank you so much for your help.","fullyFundedDate":1746496709334,"projectUrl":"project/end-of-grade-carnival/9266852/","projectTitle":"End of Grade Carnival","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Shelton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1752635_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1516565919369","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/w-shelton"},{"teacherId":4503488,"projectId":9124494,"letterContent":"Our students appreciate your generosity you have shown to the beginning of their unusual first school experience.
