My other students in Grades 5th - Kindergarten are playing quarter note and eighth note rhythms with the drums, shakers, and scrapers. They receive music reward stickers when they have an especially awesome day! Thank you for those little things that have had a big impact!\r\nYour donation has sparked so much interest in playing music, and it helps them with reading skills too. That is something they will always have. What a wonderful gift! We are just so humbled, and grateful that you helped our little school get some much-needed equipment.","fullyFundedDate":1785625170917,"projectUrl":"project/keep-the-beat-moving/10283939/","projectTitle":"Keep the Beat Moving!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Watkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10508693"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_57902","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":361,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":70,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":78,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":6,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"17.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":11.1,"schoolId":57902,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Crofton Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Crofton Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/kentucky/christian-county-public-school-district/crofton-elementary-school/57902"}
