Words truly cannot convey how meaningful this contribution has been for my students and our literacy program.\r\nYour donation has opened new worlds of exploration and imagination for my students, who come from a wide range of cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The books have provided them with opportunities to develop critical visual and reading skills, allowing them to interpret and verbalize words they are learning to use phonetically and contextually. It has been inspiring to witness how beautifully illustrated texts can transform the learning experience, helping students realize that reading extends beyond words to include images and meaning-making.\r\nOne particularly impactful book, Frizz, has deeply resonated with many of my young African American girls. It has encouraged them to recognize the beauty in their natural hair and to understand the importance of self-acceptance. I observed a powerful moment when a student made a personal connection with the characters in the story, which sparked a newfound interest in reading. Experiences like this highlight the profound difference your donation has made.\r\nI intentionally selected books that represent a range of cultures, as my classroom is both culturally and literarily diverse. The growth I have seen—especially among my most struggling readers—in areas such as visualization and verbalization has been remarkable. My students have become increasingly motivated and have truly elevated their aspirations of becoming confident literacy leaders.\r\nThank you again for your generosity and commitment to supporting education. Your contribution has made a lasting and meaningful impact on my students' academic journeys and personal growth.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n'","fullyFundedDate":1769279717655,"projectUrl":"project/ms-stieffs-aspiring-literacy-leaders/9982894/","projectTitle":"Ms. Stieff's Aspiring Literacy Leaders","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Stieff","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10053172"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_74972","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":956,"numTeachers":60,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":92,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":67.5,"schoolId":74972,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sandtown Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sandtown Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/fulton-county-school-district/sandtown-middle-school/74972"}
