I wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for your generous donation of All Quiet on the Western Front novels to our English class.\r\n\r\nBefore this year, I had never read a book like this one. All Quiet on the Western Front helped me understand history in a much deeper and more emotional way. Through the eyes of Paul Bäumer, I saw how war affects people—not just physically, but emotionally and mentally, too. It made me think about bravery, friendship, and what it means to lose something important. It was challenging at times, but it was also powerful and eye-opening.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, I had the opportunity to read a novel that I might not have picked up on my own. It really pushed me to grow as a reader and a thinker. We had amazing discussions in class that helped all of us connect more deeply with the story and its themes. I feel lucky to have had access to a personal copy that I could read, annotate, and return to during class and at home.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in students like me. Your kindness made a real difference in my education, and I'm truly grateful.\r\n\r\nSincerely,\r\nCharlotte Landry\r\n\r\nHi! My name is Bandon, and I'm a freshman at Denton High School in Denton, Texas I just wanted to say thank you so much for donating copies of All Quiet on the Western Front for our class. Your generosity means a lot to me and my classmates.\r\nBefore reading this book, I didn't really understand what soldiers went through during war. I thought it was mostly about battles and bravery. But through this story, I learned how war affects people on the inside—the fear, the confusion, and the loss. It made me feel things I've never felt from a book before, and it opened my eyes to a part of history that feels more real now.\r\n\r\nOne of the biggest things I took away from the novel is how important it is to stay human, even in the worst situations. Paul and his friends showed so much courage and loyalty, and it made me think about how I treat others and how I face challenges in my own life.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving us the chance to experience this book. It's not just another school assignment—it's something that's going to stay with me for a long time. I appreciate your kindness and support more than I can say.\r\n\r\nSincerely,\r\nBrandon Puga\r\n\r\nMy name is Rodger, and I'm a freshman at Denton High School in Denton, Texas. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for donating copies of All Quiet on the Western Front to our class. Because of you, I got to experience one of the most powerful books I've ever read.\r\n\r\nBefore we started the novel, I didn't think a book about World War I would grab my attention—but I was completely wrong. From the first few pages, I was hooked. Erich Maria Remarque's writing made me feel like I was right there with Paul and his friends, hearing the bombs, feeling the fear, and wishing for peace. It made history feel personal, not just something you read about in a textbook. For the first time, I really saw how world events like war affect real people, not just countries.\r\n\r\nWhat surprised me the most was how much I grew as a reader and writer. The assignments our teacher gave us—like writing journal entries from a soldier's perspective and analyzing the author's tone and imagery—pushed me to think deeper. I started noticing things in the writing I never paid attention to before, like symbolism and figurative language. I even started writing with more emotion and detail in my own essays and stories.\r\n\r\nThis novel didn't just teach me about war—it reminded me why stories matter. They connect us, teach us, and make us feel things we didn't expect. Thank you for giving me and my classmates this chance. Your donation didn't just provide a book; it sparked a love of reading and helped me become a stronger student.\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt thanks,\r\nRodger Reid","fullyFundedDate":1735680195991,"projectUrl":"project/all-quiet-on-the-western-front/8921400/","projectTitle":"All Quiet on the Western Front","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. London","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8070387"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_10104","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2054,"numTeachers":147,"percentFrplEligible":55,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":14,"percentWhite":37,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":40,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"14.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":74.3,"schoolId":10104,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Denton High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Denton High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/denton-independent-school-district/denton-high-school/10104"}
