The kids love to use this for academics, free time, and being able to have this as a flex seating option. It replaced a chair that was on its last legs. This chair is essential to our reading corner. The students feel very important when they are able to sit and read to each other from the big chair.\r\n\r\nStaff has been able to help students engage more when they are listening to a story. The ability to swivel and show the pictures is huge. The students were excited when the giant boxes arrived. They thought it was magic when it got put together in front of them and all wanted to have the first sit.\r\nThe students think this is a VIP chair too. They are respectful, ask permission to use it, and make sure that visitors to the room understand the rules for the chair such as empty pockets from things that will poke, clean hands, and only one at a time. I have seen a wonderful impact that was unexpected for a few of the students who do not like to read. they will sit with their read aloud story books and digital lessons without any argument if they get some time in the chair.\r\n\r\nThank you DC Donors and Governor Polis for making this happen!

This is the second year that we were able to grow our caterpillars and watch them change and grow into butterflies. This taught the class some real life science and gave them the chance to see the miracle of life. Without donors like you, we would not have been able to see their faces light up when the babies grew bigger and made their cocoons. I would not have seen the awe and surprise when the butterflies began hatching and the kids became animated as each one appeared.\r\n\r\nThank you for making this possible. Our significant support needs students were able to share this experience with other students along the way. We hope to keep this tradition going and have this experience again.

I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous contribution to our classroom project. Thanks to your support, we were able to replace our old, stained whiteboards with brand-new ones—and the difference has been truly transformative for my students and me.\r\n\r\nOur previous whiteboards were difficult to use, often stained and hard to erase, which made lessons and activities challenging. Now, with the new boards, my students can clearly see notes, diagrams, and instructions. This has allowed us to engage in review activities, brainstorm together, and take clearer notes—all essential parts of our learning process.\r\n\r\nI will never forget the excitement on my students' faces when they first saw the new boards. They immediately commented on how nice they looked and couldn't wait to write on them. That moment was a reminder of how something seemingly simple can make such a big impact on their daily learning experience.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, these whiteboards will continue to play a central role in our classroom. Whether we're reviewing for a test, solving problems as a group, or exploring new topics, the clean and functional boards help us stay focused and engaged. My students and I are truly enjoying the refreshed look and improved usability they bring to our space.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving us this opportunity to enhance our classroom environment. Your kindness and support have made a lasting difference, and we are so grateful to have donors like you cheering us on.","fullyFundedDate":1727462940067,"projectUrl":"project/science-explanations-with-white-boards/8568438/","projectTitle":"Science Explanations with White Boards!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lundahl","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9630791_orig.jpg?crop=1242,1242,x0,y538&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723061999951","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9630791"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_43293","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":349,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":59,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":42,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":54,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"16.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":44.9,"schoolId":43293,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Pleasant View Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Pleasant View Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/pueblo-county-school-district-70/pleasant-view-middle-school/43293"}
