Because of your support, students in every grade level, Kindergarten through 5th grade, now have access to high-quality headphones. From an assessment standpoint, these headphones are already making a significant difference. They allow students to fully engage with technology-based programs and assessments by reducing background noise and helping them concentrate on the tasks at hand. This ensures that each child has the best possible opportunity to demonstrate what they know and can do. Beyond testing, the headphones are also supporting classroom learning, as students can follow along with digital lessons, stories, and practice activities more effectively and independently.\r\n\r\nOur students are genuinely excited about this new resource, and the impact is evident. They enjoy having headphones that are reliable and comfortable, which makes their use of technology more engaging and less frustrating. I have noticed that students who are sometimes overwhelmed in larger group settings are now able to participate with greater confidence when working on devices. Several students have even shared that they feel it is \"easier to hear and focus\" with their new headphones. Your generosity has not only enhanced daily learning but also created a stronger, more equitable testing environment for all of our students. We are so grateful for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1746786115909,"projectUrl":"project/please-help-me-give-my-3rd-5th-grade-stu/9223127/","projectTitle":"Please Help Me Give My 3rd-5th Grade Students Headphones","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Allison","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9070775"},{"teacherId":1033744,"projectId":7064289,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our school and the arts through your donations for this project.

They proudly say \"that's me!!\" Or \"that's my friend!\" Etc when they see these displays.
