Because of you, our students now have pop-its, sensory regulation stickers, and even special snacks to enjoy. Your kindness has made a meaningful difference in our classroom community.\r\n\r\nThe pop-its and sensory regulation stickers are already helping our students stay focused, manage their emotions, and feel more comfortable during the school day. These tools give them positive ways to self-regulate, which supports both their learning and their confidence. It has been wonderful to see students using these resources to reset, refocus, and fully engage in their work.\r\n\r\nThe snacks you provided were an added and deeply appreciated surprise. For many of our students, having an extra snack during the day helps them maintain energy and concentration. Your thoughtfulness in including this support shows how much you care about their overall well-being.\r\n\r\nYour generosity goes far beyond supplies — you have shown our students that there are people who believe in them and want them to succeed. That message is powerful and lasting.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in our classroom and for helping create a positive, supportive learning environment for every child.","fullyFundedDate":1764705095844,"projectUrl":"project/social-emotional-classroom-support/9809649/","projectTitle":"Social Emotional Classroom Support","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ruddy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3196498"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_105761","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":465,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":76,"percentAsian":8,"percentBlack":65,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":66.7,"schoolId":105761,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Institute Health Professionals at Cambria Heights on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Institute Health Professionals at Cambria Heights","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/institute-of-health-professionals/105761"}
