We already have an incentive planned where students can earn a bounce house day! For the month of September, students will be working toward having fewer write-ups than they did last year. Students who meet the goal will get to celebrate their success with a special bounce house day.\r\n\r\nYour donation is giving us a fun and exciting way to reward positive behavior, celebrate accomplishments, and motivate our students.

Rather than simply watching the news, they will be the ones planning, filming, editing, and presenting it, gaining meaningful, hands-on experience every step of the way.\r\n\r\nThe impact of your gift extends far beyond the equipment itself. Students will strengthen their communication, collaboration, creativity, and technology skills while building confidence as they take ownership of a project that serves the entire school community. The hallway TVs will give students a platform to showcase their work and keep classmates, staff, and visitors informed and connected. Thank you for investing in our students and helping create opportunities that will inspire learning, leadership, and school pride for years to come.","fullyFundedDate":1779304414801,"projectUrl":"project/wildcat-news/10214520/","projectTitle":"Wildcat News","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lewis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5202694_orig.png?crop=327,327,x39,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746727072696","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-lewis10"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_78207","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":137,"numTeachers":16,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":97,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"8.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":62.6,"schoolId":78207,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Richwoods Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Richwoods Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/richwoods-school-district-r7/richwoods-elementary-school/78207"}
