When we first received the silent headphones, the students were so excited. They were thrilled with the prospect of having the ability to listen to music and stay focused on their work. At a time when legislation has banned the use of electronics (outside of their Chromebook use) such as cell phones, earbuds, and the like, having the ability to do utilize these headphones for a boost in academic focus is really an amazing way to say thank you to the students and show them that their hard work is going noticed and is appreciated.

When the boxes arrived, I could hardly contain my own joy as I unpacked each book and filled our shelves with stories that celebrate discovery, imagination, and possibility. On the first day of school, my students' faces lit up as they explored the collection. They were drawn to colorful covers and pages that reflected the world through curious, creative eyes.\r\n\r\nThese books have quickly become one of our most loved classroom treasures. Students eagerly reach for them after finishing their work or during our daily independent reading time, especially those filled with fascinating facts about animals, space, and the wonders of our world. The library has become a place where curiosity thrives and every child feels empowered to see themselves as a scientist, explorer, or problem solver.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students now have daily opportunities to connect reading with discovery. They see scientists who look like them, read about questions they want to explore, and find joy in learning beyond our lessons. You've helped create a space that inspires wonder, confidence, and belonging. This is a gift my students and I will cherish every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1750290248312,"projectUrl":"project/opening-doors-through-science-a-library/9418311/","projectTitle":"Opening Doors Through Science: A Library for Equity and Possibility","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vargas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10057900_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750127113931","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10057900"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_131728","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":401,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":76,"percentAsian":14,"percentBlack":15,"percentWhite":11,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":34,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"5 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":70.0,"schoolId":131728,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about KIPP: Affirm Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"KIPP: Affirm Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/kipp-affirm-middle-school/131728"}
