Your kindness and willingness to invest in this initiative truly made a difference.\r\nThe sensory materials you helped provide created a positive and transformative impact on my learners. These tools significantly improved their focus, attention, and emotional regulation, allowing them to participate more actively and confidently in classroom activities. Students who often struggled with restlessness or overstimulation became calmer and more engaged, while others developed greater independence by choosing the tools that helped them stay comfortable and ready to learn. The project fostered a more inclusive and supportive classroom, where every child felt valued and capable.\r\nThank you once again for believing in this project and for supporting the needs of my students. Your generosity not only supplied materials but also inspired a learning environment where children can thrive, explore, and succeed. Your contribution will continue to benefit them long after the project has ended, and for that, I am deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1771104489984,"projectUrl":"project/my-sensory-sensitive-project/10044499/","projectTitle":"My Sensory Sensitive Project","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Peralta","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10413528"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_82734","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":263,"numTeachers":27,"percentFrplEligible":85,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":83,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"9.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":33.3,"schoolId":82734,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Dulce Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Dulce Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-mexico/dulce-independent-school-district/dulce-elementary-school/82734"}
