First grade has been truly enjoying our classroom transformations with the help of your donations. I have been able to create memorable and exciting learning experiences for the kids with the help of these items. Being able to decorate our classroom to go along with what we are learning has aided in creating engaging lessons and students mastering skills all while having fun. \r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments is seeing the faces of my students light up as they enter the classroom on transformation days. Transformation days are always a surprise for them. Just hearing the excitement in their voices and them saying \"best day ever\" makes all the prep and set up worth it. \r\n\r\nThis year we have been able to complete many transformations to go along with our learning. We have had a Doctor Day, Space Day, and Habitat Day all with your help. Soon we will also get to have a Fairy Tale Day. I know that the students have truly enjoyed these days and we are so grateful for your assistance in making them happen.","fullyFundedDate":1732906925005,"projectUrl":"project/transform-our-year-with-room-transformat/8742501/","projectTitle":"Transform Our Year With Room Transformation Materials!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bott","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9732007_orig.jpg?crop=2898,2898,x0,y38&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727108102918","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9732007"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_27389","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":352,"numTeachers":16,"percentFrplEligible":76,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":91,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"22.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":57.1,"schoolId":27389,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Salt Fork South Elementary & Junior High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Salt Fork South Elementary & Junior High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/salt-fork-community-unit-school-district-512/jamaica-school/27389"}
