Students in middle school are craving connection with others, particularly adults. Having platforms and materials through which to connect is having a considerable impact on my relationships with students and when students have strong relationships with their teachers, they learn and grow more.

My students have benefitted tremendously from the resources you have contributed to our classroom. They have been grateful for having access to the new books in our classroom library and the wobble stools when needed.\r\n\r\nWhen students were first shown the materials, they were eager to use them. Many of my students enjoy having the option to use the wobble stools because it allows them to stay focused on learning while also getting to move around. The Harry Potter Illustrated Collection is frequently read by numerous students during independent reading time. Both my students and I love that the Harry Potter Illustrated Collection brings the original Harry Potter novels to life. My students have also enjoyed reading the other books donated to our classroom. \r\n\r\nWe are so grateful to have access to these resources. Again, thank you for contributing to my students' learning and success.","fullyFundedDate":1727462777756,"projectUrl":"project/independent-reading-and-seating-choice-f/8573391/","projectTitle":"Independent Reading and Seating Choice for Middle Schoolers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rust","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9632110"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_63361","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":829,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":12,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":73,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"16.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":80.0,"schoolId":63361,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Ranch View Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Ranch View Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/douglas-county-school-district-re-1/ranch-view-middle-school/63361"}
