They gathered around, eyes wide, as we opened each package. The biggest cheers came when they realized everyone would get their very own whiteboard and marker. They couldn't wait to try them out—within minutes, we were practicing letters and solving math problems together, proudly holding up our boards to show off their answers.\r\n\r\nThe privacy dividers have already made a difference. A few of my students who normally get distracted leaned over and whispered, \"Look! I did it all by myself!\" It was such a sweet moment of independence. The headphones have also been a game-changer during our learning centers. Now each child can focus on their reading or math program without all the background noise.\r\n\r\nEven the little things are making a big impact—our wipes are keeping us healthy and ready to learn, and the straws and stickers have turned into fun tools for counting, sorting, and STEM activities.\r\n\r\nWhat's next? We'll be using these materials daily as we move into new sight words, math stories, and bigger projects. Having the right tools has made my students feel special, capable, and excited to learn.\r\n\r\nThank you for making our classroom brighter and our learning stronger. My students know that someone out there believes in them—and that makes all the difference.","fullyFundedDate":1754167763812,"projectUrl":"project/ready-to-learn-tools-for-focus-cleanli/9471133/","projectTitle":"Ready to Learn: Tools for Focus, Cleanliness and Creativity","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Miller","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9521868_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754167717645","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9521868"},{"teacherId":10054097,"projectId":9414987,"letterContent":"I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your generous support in providing our classroom with binders, binder dividers with pockets, Lysol sanitizer spray, Amazon disinfectant wipes, and Post-It anchor paper. These resources have already made a significant difference in both the learning environment and the daily experiences of my students. Your generosity has directly impacted our classroom in ways that go far beyond supplies—it has created a cleaner, more organized, and more engaging space for learning.\r\n\r\nThe binders and binder dividers with pockets have transformed the way my students organize their classwork. Before, many of them struggled to keep track of handouts, assignments, and notes, which often led to misplaced work or incomplete projects. With the binders, each student now has a structured system to file and access materials. The dividers with pockets have been especially helpful, as students can store important papers, homework, and reference sheets without fear of them getting lost. I have noticed a remarkable improvement in how quickly they can find what they need, and this has allowed them to take greater responsibility for their learning. For some of my students, this sense of independence is empowering and boosts their confidence.\r\n\r\nThe Lysol sanitizer spray and disinfectant wipes have also become essential to maintaining a safe and healthy classroom environment. With so many students working closely together throughout the day, germs spread quickly. Thanks to your donation, we are able to disinfect desks, tables, and shared materials regularly. The students themselves have taken ownership of this routine, often volunteering to wipe down surfaces and help keep the classroom tidy. This not only promotes good hygiene but also teaches them the importance of caring for shared spaces and respecting each other's health. Parents have expressed their appreciation for these added precautions, as it gives them peace of mind knowing their children are learning in a cleaner, safer environment.\r\n\r\nThe Post-It anchor paper has quickly become one of our favorite instructional tools. It allows me to model lessons in a way that students can easily reference later. We have used the large sheets to create anchor charts for reading strategies, math problem-solving steps, and classroom expectations. Because the paper sticks to the walls, students can revisit these resources whenever they need a reminder or support. Many students have commented on how helpful it is to have these visual references available throughout the day. It has also encouraged more collaboration during lessons, as we can record students' ideas and display them for everyone to see.\r\n\r\nOverall, these supplies have enhanced both the academic and social aspects of our classroom. Students are more organized, engaged, and mindful of their environment. They feel a stronger sense of pride and responsibility, knowing that their classroom is well-equipped and cared for. Your contribution has directly supported not just learning, but also the development of important life skills such as organization, responsibility, and collaboration.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your kindness and generosity. Your support has made a lasting impact on my students, and it is greatly appreciated by both them and myself. We are truly grateful to have caring donors like you who invest in education and believe in the potential of every child.","fullyFundedDate":1750769920426,"projectUrl":"project/empower-a-scholar-change-a-story/9414987/","projectTitle":"Empower a Scholar, Change a Story!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. King","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10054097"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_18360","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":469,"numTeachers":32,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":61,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":34,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":58.6,"schoolId":18360,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Frost Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Frost Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/houston-independent-school-district/frost-elementary-school/18360"}
