Thanks to your kindness, my students have the tools they need to thrive in the classroom and keep our learning environment safe and welcoming.\r\nThe excitement on my students' faces when they first saw the new supplies was priceless! They immediately felt valued and supported, and it sparked a renewed sense of enthusiasm for their work. Whether it's pencils, paper, or cleaning supplies, everything is being put to good use—helping them focus on their learning and allowing me to create a clean, organized space for them to thrive.\r\nThe classroom has already benefited tremendously from your contribution. We've been able to start projects and lessons with confidence, knowing that the supplies we need are ready and available. From art projects to daily assignments, the materials you helped provide are being used for everything from fostering creativity to ensuring we maintain a healthy, clutter-free environment.\r\nLooking ahead, these supplies will continue to be a vital part of our lessons and daily routines. The cleaning supplies ensure that we can keep our space sanitized and safe, which is especially important this year. The school supplies, meanwhile, will support ongoing projects, hands-on activities, and the everyday needs of the students as they continue to engage with new concepts and deepen their understanding.\r\nThank you again for making all of this possible. Your donation is not just about the materials; it's about showing my students that they are supported and that there are people who believe in their potential. We are truly grateful for your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1758202706429,"projectUrl":"project/rewards-for-everyone/9623903/","projectTitle":"Rewards for Everyone","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rias","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6633014_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1689359079219","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6633014"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_18604","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":220,"numTeachers":15,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":95,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"14.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":21.7,"schoolId":18604,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Moorhead Central School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Moorhead Central School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/mississippi/sunflower-county-consolidated-school-district/james-rosser-elementary-school/18604"}
