Because of you, my 5th grade reading students now have access to headphones that allow them to fully engage with digital learning resources every day. This simple but powerful tool has made a huge difference in helping students focus, work independently, and participate in online reading programs, audiobooks, and language supports without distractions.\r\n\r\nThe headphones have been especially exciting for my students because they will be able to clearly hear stories, instructions, and interactive lessons at their own pace. My bilingual and emerging readers benefit the most, as they can replay audio, follow along with text, and build confidence without feeling self-conscious. I've already noticed increased engagement, better comprehension, and more students eager to log in and practice their reading skills.\r\n\r\nYour kindness has created a quieter, more productive learning environment and opened new opportunities for every child in our classroom. Thank you for investing in my students and believing in their success. We are truly grateful for your support!","fullyFundedDate":1769177461555,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-headphones/9965088/","projectTitle":"Classroom Headphones","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hernandez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10387798_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1766021085901","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10387798"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_17725","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":353,"numTeachers":38,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":91,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"9.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":66.7,"schoolId":17725,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Juan N Seguin Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Juan N Seguin Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/houston-independent-school-district/juan-n-seguin-elementary-school/17725"}
