The art supplies you helped fund have completely changed the energy during our art time. Instead of scrambling to share a few worn-out markers, my students now have access to bright paints, fresh paper, and tools that actually work—and they've been diving right in. One project we especially loved was creating \"identity masks,\" where students used color, texture, and symbols to represent who they are. It sparked so many meaningful conversations and helped students open up in ways I hadn't seen before.\r\n\r\nWhen the boxes first arrived, it felt like Christmas morning. My students could hardly believe all the supplies were for them. There was so much excitement—kids were clapping, shouting \"No way!\" and one even asked if we won a prize. The look on their faces was something I'll never forget. They immediately started planning what they wanted to make. That day, our classroom felt full of possibility.\r\n\r\nRight now, we're starting a new project where students are creating storybooks—writing short stories and illustrating them with the new supplies. It's been amazing to see their imaginations come to life on the page. This kind of creative freedom just wouldn't be possible without your support. Thank you for believing in my students and giving them the tools to explore, express, and shine.\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt gratitude,","fullyFundedDate":1718144516210,"projectUrl":"project/art-keeps-kids-in-school/8316616/","projectTitle":"Art Keeps Kids in School!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. M.
