Your kindness and support have made such a meaningful difference for our students, and I can't tell you how much we appreciate it.\r\n\r\nThe items you donated — positive posters, math manipulatives and 3D shapes, and plenty of pencils — have brought so much color, excitement, and encouragement into our classrooms and hallways. It might sound simple, but these things have truly brightened our school days and helped our students learn and grow in ways that go far beyond the materials themselves.\r\n\r\nThe positive posters were such a hit with our Student Council. They've turned our hallways into spaces filled with encouragement and hope. Now, as students walk to class, they see reminders about kindness, hard work, and believing in themselves. I've noticed kids actually stopping to read them and talking with their friends about the messages. Teachers have even used them as little conversation starters in class about resilience and character. It's amazing how something as small as a poster can have such a big effect on the school atmosphere. It's made our building feel more welcoming, and that's something our students notice and appreciate every day.\r\n\r\nIn my math classroom, the manipulatives and 3D geometric shapes have been an incredible addition. When we started our geometry unit, I saw how much easier it was for students to understand the concepts once they could actually hold and explore the shapes themselves. Instead of trying to picture them in their heads, they were turning them around, comparing sides, and counting edges. It's been wonderful to watch their confidence grow as they realize math isn't just about numbers on paper—it's something they can see and touch and make sense of. These tools have especially helped students who learn best through hands-on experiences, and it's made our lessons more engaging for everyone.\r\n\r\nAnd then there are the pencils—something so basic, yet so essential. Because we're a Title I school, not all of our students come to class with the supplies they need every day. Having a ready supply of pencils means no one has to feel embarrassed or left out if they don't have one. It removes a small but significant barrier and allows every student to participate fully. You'd be surprised how much stress a missing pencil can cause a sixth grader, and how much relief it brings to know that there's always one available. Your generosity helped make that possible.\r\n\r\nYour support has done more than just provide materials—it's helped build a stronger, more positive learning environment. It's shown our students that there are people out there who care about their education and believe in their potential. That message alone is powerful.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your thoughtfulness and generosity. You've helped make our school a place where students feel inspired, supported, and ready to learn. We're truly grateful for everything you've done to help our kids succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1756821736405,"projectUrl":"project/6th-grade-math-rocks/9572618/","projectTitle":"6th Grade Math Rocks!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Frank","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10167796_orig.png?crop=322,322,x19,y4&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754869028637","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10167796"},{"teacherId":4332293,"projectId":9130478,"letterContent":"Our school is so thankful for the opportunity to replace some of the well loved books with new books!
