Your kindness has made such a difference in our day-to-day learning. So far this year, and it's only October, my students have already completed six creative assignments using the art supplies you helped provide.\r\n\r\nIt has been incredible to watch how much joy and pride these materials bring to them. They've shown so much responsibility, taking great care of every marker, crayon, and colored pencil. In fact, I've only had to open one box of each so far, which means your donations will continue to brighten our classroom for years to come.\r\n\r\nThese supplies have truly unlocked my students' creativity. I've seen even my quietest students light up when they get the chance to express themselves through art. Their projects have filled our walls with color and positivity and it's amazing how something as simple as new markers can bring so much excitement and confidence to a classroom.\r\n\r\nEvery day, when I look around and see their artwork displayed on our bulletin board, I'm reminded of the impact your generosity has had. You've given my students more than just supplies-you've given them a chance to create, to feel proud, and to see the beauty in their own ideas.\r\n\r\nFrom all of us in my classroom, thank you for helping make our learning space such a creative, inspiring, and happy place. We are truly grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1753652811602,"projectUrl":"project/art-supplies-for-my-classroom/9472778/","projectTitle":"Art Supplies for My Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Baldini","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8475751"},{"teacherId":517154,"projectId":9471071,"letterContent":"Here's a warm thank-you message you could use:\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\nI am so grateful to you for funding my DonorsChoose project and providing snacks for my 6th-grade classroom. Your generosity means so much to me and to my students. Having access to snacks during the day makes a big difference—students can focus better, stay energized, and feel cared for in our classroom community.\r\n\r\nThese snacks are not just treats; they are motivators that encourage my students to push through challenging lessons and keep a positive attitude. They also help curb hunger, which is especially important during long school days when some students may not have had enough to eat. The classroom already feels more enjoyable and supportive because of this gift, and my students and I can't thank you enough for making learning a little brighter and a lot more fun.","fullyFundedDate":1753652811374,"projectUrl":"project/food-is-the-inspiration-for-learning-fe/9471071/","projectTitle":"Food is the Inspiration for Learning: Feeding 6th Grade Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Schwarz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp517154_orig.jpg?crop=1536,1536,x259,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1568860035527","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/gretchen-schwarz"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_121539","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":88,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":85,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Weighted Average","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":80.5,"schoolId":121539,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cesar Chavez Ravenswood Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cesar Chavez Ravenswood Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/ravenswood-city-elementary-school-district/ravenswood-comprehensive-middle-school/121539"}
