This simple act has made a big difference in these kids' lives. Our young learners are developing early literacy skills, for example, recognizing letters, retelling stories, and understanding how books work, all while developing a love for reading. Families have shared how excited their children are to read together at home, and students often come back eager to talk about the stories they heard. These books are helping to build strong home-school connections and showing our students that reading is something to enjoy and share beyond the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1733244050452,"projectUrl":"project/though-the-weather-outside-is-frightful/8967524/","projectTitle":"Though the Weather Outside Is Frightful: Lets Go Read!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Marie Dorisme","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7167774_orig.jpg?crop=4000,4000,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1588730829307","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7167774"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_119381","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":47,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":43,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":36,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"US Census Data for the surrounding geographic area","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"Census ZCTA","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":82.9,"schoolId":119381,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Danbury Head Start Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Danbury Head Start Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/connecticut/office-of-head-start/danbury-head-start-center-dhsc-/119381"}
