Your generosity has made a lasting impact—not only on our daily lessons but on the energy and excitement my students bring to learning each day. From the moment the packages arrived, the classroom felt transformed. Having the materials we needed readily available made it easier to create engaging, hands-on experiences for my students.\r\n\r\nOne of the biggest highlights has been the clocks you sent. They have been an amazing tool for our time-telling lessons! The students lit up with curiosity as they practiced moving the hands, comparing digital and analog time, and even creating their own schedules. Watching them develop a real-world skill with so much enthusiasm reminded me just how powerful the right tools can be. Thank you for believing in our classroom and helping us grow in such meaningful ways.","fullyFundedDate":1715121543426,"projectUrl":"project/new-beginning/8340561/","projectTitle":"New Beginning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kane","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9410193_orig.png?crop=1288,1288,x0,y42&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1702422019736","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9410193"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_101157","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":997,"numTeachers":53,"percentFrplEligible":56,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":87,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"1 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"18.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":91.9,"schoolId":101157,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Riverton Street Charter School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Riverton Street Charter School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/riverton-street-charter-school/101157"}
