The moment I received the storage item, which included the headphones and noise-cancelling headphones, my students were excited to use them. It was the beginning of the school year, and students were settling in with school supplies. I was getting ready to implement independent and station routines that required headphones. My students were allowed to enhance their learning by listening to their school applications online, which allowed them to obtain their personal accommodations when needed for testing and activities.\r\nIt has been a great help when the students are testing, and a few of them would like to have the noise cancellation during their testing. The headphones have also been helpful to the students who have accommodations, and they are able to use them because of the headphones! The students are grateful that they have the supplies they need to complete activities. I am also very grateful that the items were donated to my classroom, and my students can use these resources!","fullyFundedDate":1756688245783,"projectUrl":"project/great-hearing-allows-great-educational-o/9577735/","projectTitle":"Great Hearing Allows Great Educational Opportunites","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Leal","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9647558_orig.jpg?crop=601,601,x0,y28&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754957410370","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9647558"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_13350","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":365,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":8,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":11,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":67,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":81.4,"schoolId":13350,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Pillow Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Pillow Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/austin-independent-school-district/pillow-elementary-school/13350"}
