Because of your support, my students now have access to resources that are helping them grow as confident, engaged readers every single day.\r\n\r\nReading has always been important to me—when I was in school, books opened doors, sparked curiosity, and helped shape who I am today. I am intentionally bringing that same love of reading into my classroom by creating a space where students feel excited, motivated, and supported as they develop their literacy skills.\r\n\r\nWith the materials you helped provide, my students are spending more time actively reading and interacting with texts. I am also focusing heavily on writing to the text to strengthen comprehension. After reading, my older students complete daily written summaries of what they read. This practice helps them process information, identify key ideas, and truly understand the text rather than just reading the words on the page.\r\n\r\nYour donation is making a real difference—not just in their academic growth, but in their confidence as readers and writers. Thank you for believing in my students and for helping create meaningful learning experiences that will benefit them far beyond the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1760901968574,"projectUrl":"project/feeding-minds-and-hearts-through-reading/9838224/","projectTitle":"Feeding Minds and Hearts Through Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Perkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10315889"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_103720","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":817,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":45,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":92,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":49.5,"schoolId":103720,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Charter School of New Castle on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Charter School of New Castle","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/delaware/delaware-department-of-education/family-foundations-academy-middle-school/103720"}
