Some of our students come to school just to eat breakfast and lunch. We often worry about our students while on long breaks from school. Your donation will have such an impact on my students.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, I am able to help feed several students. When a student can't think of anything but the hunger pains from not eating, I am able to provide them with a snack to sustain them until lunch.\r\n\r\nBy being able to supply snacks to my students, I am able to help them focus on their lessons and improve their academic skills. I am able to make sure my students have something to get them through the day. Thank you for your generosity and kindness. I appreciate it more than you can imagine.","fullyFundedDate":1732033551198,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-food-closet-for-students-in-ne/8908499/","projectTitle":"Classroom Food Closet for Students in Need","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Nolan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3466138_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1701981271207","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-t-nolan"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_80454","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":598,"numTeachers":60,"percentFrplEligible":85,"percentAsian":28,"percentBlack":13,"percentWhite":4,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":51,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":0.0,"schoolId":80454,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Richmond Avenue Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Richmond Avenue Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-jersey/atlantic-city-public-school-district/richmond-avenue-elementary-school/80454"}
