Pérez! My students absolutely loved diving into Malú's world. They were so inspired that many of them wanted to create their own zines, just like the characters in the story. They also kept asking what might happen to Malú next—clear proof of how much they connected with her journey!\r\n\r\nOne of the most meaningful parts of reading this book together was hearing students share how they related to the characters. They were excited to see families, cultures, and situations that reflect their own lives represented in a novel we read as a class. Having these books in our classroom library has truly opened doors for both joy and deep conversations.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students the chance to experience this powerful story together. Your support made our classroom brighter and inspired a new love for reading, creativity, and self-expression.","fullyFundedDate":1716693404468,"projectUrl":"project/every-student-needs-to-know-the-first-ru/8324859/","projectTitle":"Every Student Needs to Know the First Rule of Punk!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ivanez Vega","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9517637_orig.jpg?crop=1080,1080,x72,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713808594669","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-ivanez"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_103332","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":880,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":32,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":29,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":55,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":88.3,"schoolId":103332,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Great Valley Academy Salida on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Great Valley Academy Salida","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/salida-union-school-district/great-valley-academy-manteca/103332"}
