The new furniture has transformed the space from a place where students simply borrowed books into a place where they love to be.\r\n\r\nNow, students settle into cozy seating to read independently, gather around flexible tables for group projects, and enjoy a sense of ownership and pride in their shared space. The updated layout allows for both quiet reflection and collaborative learning — meeting the needs of every type of reader and learner.\r\n\r\nWe've already seen students spending more time in the library before school, during breaks, and after class. They talk excitedly about their favorite reading spots and have begun recommending books to one another. For many, this is the first time they've felt that the library truly belongs to them.\r\n\r\nBeyond the furniture itself, your support sent a powerful message: that their curiosity and love of reading matter. Your gift has created a space that encourages imagination, focus, and community — and its impact will ripple far beyond this year's students.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping us build not just a better library, but a better future for our readers.","fullyFundedDate":1754952187881,"projectUrl":"project/cozy-haven-furnishing-our-school-librar/9520486/","projectTitle":"Cozy Haven: Furnishing Our School Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Boone","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6290517"},{"teacherId":9370337,"projectId":8847531,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for all your amazing help. My students were so excited when the books started coming in. I have never seen them so excited about books. They were jumping up and down and cheering for all the new reading options. My students begged to just sit and read, whether it was independently or to each other. It definitely melted my heart to see them so excited about reading. \r\n\r\nWe've used the books both in and out of the classroom. Students read in small groups or take the books home for independent reading. I've used the books in writing projects and as read alouds. We don't have a library at school so the addition of books to our classroom library is always exciting.","fullyFundedDate":1728002361987,"projectUrl":"project/there-are-bookworms-in-our-library/8847531/","projectTitle":"There Are Bookworms in Our Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tait","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9370337"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_25492","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":101,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":63,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":40,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":42,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":90.0,"schoolId":25492,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Northwest Preparatory Charter School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Northwest Preparatory Charter School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/piner-olivet-union-sch-dist/north-west-prep-piner-olivet/25492"}
