Your generosity has opened the door to an exciting world of storytelling for our students. Many of our students are enthusiastic fans of popular series like Jojo's, Deathhole, and Splatoon, but have previously only experienced these stories through video. Because of you, they now have the opportunity to engage with these beloved characters and adventures through reading, strengthening their literacy skills while enjoying content they truly love. Your gift has transformed casual viewers into eager readers.\r\n\r\nYour donation is especially meaningful for students who are learning the English language. Having access to books connected to stories they already know and enjoy gives them confidence and motivation to practice reading in English. Instead of viewing reading as a challenge, they see it as an exciting extension of their interests. By providing books that spark genuine enthusiasm, you have helped create a welcoming and inclusive learning environment where all students can grow. We are deeply grateful for your support and for the lasting impact your generosity will have on our students' academic journeys.","fullyFundedDate":1763001495163,"projectUrl":"project/building-literacy-one-manga-at-a-time/9883038/","projectTitle":"Building Literacy One Manga at a Time","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ells","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10345762_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y69&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1762546890175","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10345762"},{"teacherId":9477949,"projectId":9646606,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our wellness space!

My students learned, felt valued (especially when they returned the keys to their beloved teachers and principal, and shard that their tires were filled and car clean)! \r\n\r\nWe spent afternoons outside, talking, sharing, laughing and being productive! It was amazing! Being at an alternative ex school my students often don't want to share and they don't necessarily trust adults and teachers. Being outside and washing cars, checking tire pressure and oil, etc allows us to talk and share in a more natural setting! I believe it builds their connection to school And gets them more committed to attending and participating in General!","fullyFundedDate":1732726505593,"projectUrl":"project/mental-wellness-with-real-life-skills/8648285/","projectTitle":"Mental Wellness with Real Life Skills","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Anderson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3559399_orig.jpg?crop=1650,1650,x0,y66&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1693349264803","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mamakelly"},{"teacherId":9022146,"projectId":9278774,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your support!
