The effects are immeasurable and the kid's truly appreciate it. Their faces lit up when I told them that people had donated to help them and to improve their learning and school environment. Test and overall scores have improved as well. Kind of like when an athlete gets a new uniform; they just seem to take pride in that and even elevate their game is the same way that it is in the classroom. The new equipment raises morale and they take pride in the fact that others care and willing to help them on their path towards graduation!

When we handed them out, we had students lined up that were so excited to get a free coat. Many of the students shared that they had outgrown their previous coats are were unable to purchase new ones. They were able to shred the threadbare hoodies and blankets they would wrap around themselves in place of a coat for an item that will actually keep them warm. I saw students wearing these coats all around the building for weeks to come. We had several left over, but we were able to share these with the district's homeless liaison to distribute next year to students in need. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for your support in keeping our students warm.

When my students first saw the materials, they were beyond excited. Some started reading right away, and others started writing and doodling.\r\nSince we started reading the novel, we've had deep discussions about justice, identity, and overcoming struggles. One moment was when a student shared how Amal's story reminded them of a family member's experience with the legal system. This led to a heartfelt conversation about fairness and how these issues affect our own communities.\r\nRight now, my students are working on writing poetry that reflects Amal's story. Their creativity and critical thinking have been amazing!\r\nYour support has given my students more than just books—it has given them a new way to see the world, think deeply, and express themselves.

Through independent reading, I was able to foster a love for reading among several students. \r\n\r\nAt first, the students were hesitant. They hated reading (for many different reasons), and the thought of having to do it for 10 minutes DAILY scared them. However, I introduced them to a variety of novels at the start of the school year. Many found one or two that they were interested in. After a couple of months of pushing, it clicked! The ones who found a love for reading were asking me for another recommendation after they had finished their first book, or they wanted the second novel in the series they were reading.\r\n\r\nSo because of this, I thank you for contributing to my classroom library. I was able to collect a wide range of genres that appealed to most students, and in turn, many of them regained, or gained for the first time, a love for reading.","fullyFundedDate":1691068361248,"projectUrl":"project/books-that-nourish-the-soul/7501409/","projectTitle":"Books That Nourish the Soul","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Haley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8892573_orig.jpg?crop=750,750,x0,y182&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691112422397","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8892573"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_86967","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1183,"numTeachers":76,"percentFrplEligible":81,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":39,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":72.6,"schoolId":86967,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Del City High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Del City High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oklahoma/midwest-city-del-city-public-schools/del-city-high-school/86967"}
