I used these books for my anti-book club. This is a \"secret society\" for kids who self-proclaim to not enjoy reading. They picked free books to read over break and were challenged to prove to me that they read it. The kids who read their books got to take a walking field trip to a bookstore to pick out a book. The donated books gave these students a wide array of high-interest books to choose. Your donation made this program a success and gave many students a positive experience with reading! My favorite thing as a librarian is to get a kid excited about a book for the first time. Hopefully this happens early, but when older students finally find \"the book\" that makes them enjoy reading, it is so powerful for their confidence and self-image as a reader!","fullyFundedDate":1733188905953,"projectUrl":"project/winter-break-book-club/8956807/","projectTitle":"Winter Break Book Club","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Elliott","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6987676_orig.png?crop=448,448,x0,y74&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1628106123964","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mselliottatrangeland"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_58288","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":466,"numTeachers":23,"percentFrplEligible":39,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":18,"percentWhite":59,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"20.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":83.5,"schoolId":58288,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Field Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Field Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/kentucky/jefferson-county-public-schools/field-elementary-school/58288"}
