The resources you helped us acquire—everything from **fresh art supplies** to **organizational bins** and **new classroom books**—have truly transformed our learning environment. For example, the new **noise-dampening reading cushions** have created a designated quiet corner, which we recently used for a \"Book Tasting\" project. Each student got to cozy up with a different book from our expanded class library (thanks to your contribution!) and share their \"tasting notes\" on a few they liked. It's been wonderful to see how these simple, practical items foster **focus** and make learning more **comfortable and inviting**.\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n### Students' Joyful Reactions and Next Steps\r\n\r\nThe students' reaction when we first unveiled the materials was pure joy! The sight of the new, bright **colored pencils and markers** and the organized, accessible **supply stations** brought on lots of \"oohs\" and \"aahs.\" They were especially thrilled with the new **math manipulatives**, which they said \"feel more real\" than the old, worn-out ones. Your contribution gave them a sense of being valued—that someone outside our school cares enough to give them the very best tools for learning. Looking ahead, we are currently diving into a big **\"Community Heroes\" research project**. Your donation is still at work here; the fresh **poster board and presentation materials** are essential for the students to create their final displays, and the new **classroom storage** keeps all the necessary research books and supplies organized and ready for action every day.\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nThank you again for giving our students the resources they needed to thrive. Your support made a real, lasting difference in their daily learning experience!\r\n\r\nWould you like me to draft a similar post for a different past campaign?","fullyFundedDate":1569878488700,"projectUrl":"project/bridge-academy-supplies/4364110/","projectTitle":"Bridge Academy Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Ainsworth","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6644089"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_5202","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":442,"numTeachers":20,"percentFrplEligible":78,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":7,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":80,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"22.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":81.6,"schoolId":5202,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Hilliard Comstock Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Hilliard Comstock Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/santa-rosa-city-school-district/hilliard-comstock-middle-school/5202"}
