Preschool classrooms are vibrant, engaging spaces, but for many young learners the constant activity can feel overwhelming. Your support has allowed us to provide developmentally appropriate sensory tools that help children regulate their emotions, focus their attention, and feel safe and supported in their learning environment. Because of your gift, our classroom is better equipped to meet the diverse needs of every child who enters it.\r\n\r\nResearch in early childhood education consistently shows that access to sensory regulation tools can reduce off-task behavior, increase attention, and support positive social interactions, especially for children with sensory processing challenges or emerging self-regulation skills. These tools give students healthy, structured ways to manage their sensory needs, helping them return to a calm, ready-to-learn state and participate more fully in classroom routines and instruction.\r\n\r\nBy funding this entire project, you have invested in proactive, inclusive practices that promote emotional well-being and academic readiness. Your generosity is already making a meaningful difference, creating a calmer classroom environment where all students can thrive and begin developing lifelong self-regulation skills. We are deeply grateful for your belief in our students and for the lasting impact of your support.","fullyFundedDate":1769192048113,"projectUrl":"project/helping-hands-for-sensory-needs/9988196/","projectTitle":"Helping Hands for Sensory Needs","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Dowd","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10003429_orig.png?crop=331,331,x77,y24&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1769527684088","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10003429"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_109314","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":315,"numTeachers":12,"percentFrplEligible":56,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":78,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 3","studentTeacherRatio":"26.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":89.3,"schoolId":109314,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about PS 360 New Choice Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"PS 360 New Choice Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/ps-360q/109314"}
