Your generosity has made a meaningful difference in our classroom, giving my students the tools they need to learn with greater confidence and independence every day.\r\n\r\nThe headphones, book bins, and organizational materials were put to use right away. Because of your support, every student was able to use a working pair of headphones during our state English Proficiency test and other district assessments. This may seem like a small detail, but for many of my students, having reliable materials helps them feel prepared, capable, and proud of their work.\r\n\r\nOur classroom library is now organized so students can easily find books at their instructional level, which has encouraged more independent reading and a growing love for books. The magnetic clips and border have transformed our whiteboard into a vibrant learning space filled with resources students can reference throughout the day. The magnetic letters have also become an essential part of our phonemic awareness activities and small group lessons, helping young readers build the foundational skills they need to succeed.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has helped create a classroom environment where students feel supported, capable, and excited to learn. At this age, these experiences shape how children see themselves as learners.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in my students and in their futures. Your kindness is helping first graders build confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning that will last far beyond our classroom walls.","fullyFundedDate":1764467776392,"projectUrl":"project/tools-to-foster-independence/9583897/","projectTitle":"Tools to Foster Independence","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Walbruch","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10173421_orig.png?crop=628,628,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756700687930","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10173421"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_58392","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":335,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":61,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":5,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":85,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 7","studentTeacherRatio":"9.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":69.2,"schoolId":58392,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about The Creighton Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"The Creighton Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/creighton-school-district-14/creighton-school/58392"}
