The tissues and disinfectant wipes you provided are being used every single day to help keep our students healthy and focused. It's amazing how something so simple can make such a big difference.\r\n\r\nWhen our students saw the new supplies, their faces lit up! They were thrilled to know that people outside our classroom care about them and want to support their learning environment. We talked about how acts of kindness like yours help our classroom community stay strong and connected. It was a great opportunity to remind students of the power of generosity and gratitude.\r\n\r\nAs we continue through the school year, these supplies will continue to support every lesson, project, and group activity we do. From small group reading to science experiments, having a clean and organized space allows students to stay focused on learning and working together. Thank you for making that possible, you've helped create a positive, caring classroom environment where students feel valued and supported every day.","fullyFundedDate":1752812051394,"projectUrl":"project/supplies-for-2025-2026/9465886/","projectTitle":"Supplies for 2025-2026","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lopez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9451654_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1744222513601","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9451654"},{"teacherId":9565314,"projectId":9192575,"letterContent":"On behalf of my middle school students, I want to extend my sincere thanks for your generous support in providing comfortable bean bag chairs for our classroom. What might seem like a small addition has made a meaningful and lasting impact on our learning environment.\r\n\r\nFrom the very first day the bean bag chairs arrived, the excitement was felt. Students were immediately drawn to the soft, inviting seating and quickly began to see our classroom as a more welcoming and flexible space.\r\n\r\nThe bean bag chairs have become more than just seating. For students who struggle with traditional desks, especially those with attention or sensory needs, these chairs have provided comfort, focus, and a sense of calm. They've used this space to read more deeply, collaborate more freely, and feel relaxed in the classroom.\r\n\r\nPerhaps most importantly, these small but meaningful changes have helped create a classroom culture centered on care, choice, and community. The students now take turns using the chairs responsibly and with gratitude.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the power of simple changes to make a big difference. Your generosity has helped foster a love of learning math, and we are all better for it.","fullyFundedDate":1742928624074,"projectUrl":"project/comfy-seating-options-for-students/9192575/","projectTitle":"Comfy Seating Options for Students","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mercier","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9565314_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754091210454","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9565314"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_63253","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":778,"numTeachers":50,"percentFrplEligible":43,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":4,"percentLatinx":62,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.0,"schoolId":63253,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Eagle Ridge Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Eagle Ridge Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-mexico/rio-rancho-public-school-district/eagle-ridge-middle-school/63253"}
