Because of you, we've already been making great use of our new class sets of books. My students have been fully engaged in reading The Great Gatsby, and having enough copies for everyone has made a tremendous difference. Students have been able to follow along together, participate in deeper discussions, and draft thoughtful essays using the text as a shared reference point.\r\n\r\nYour gift has created true equity in our classroom. No one has to wait for a copy or share with a partner; every student can access the book at the same time. This has transformed reading into a collaborative experience where students learn from the story and from one another, building confidence and strong literacy skills.\r\n\r\nWe are also incredibly excited to start next semester with Fences. Having full class sets means students will again be able to explore themes, characters, and the author's craft side by side, enriching our conversations and understanding as a community of readers.\r\n\r\nYour generosity will continue to impact students for years to come. Thank you for believing in our work and for giving my students the resources they need to think deeply, engage fully, and experience the joy of great literature together.","fullyFundedDate":1758897780988,"projectUrl":"project/opening-worlds-through-shared-reading/9653962/","projectTitle":"Opening Worlds Through Shared Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kessler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9630438_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y504&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1722999475612","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9630438"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_41372","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":321,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":87,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":15,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":53,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"14.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":64.4,"schoolId":41372,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sheridan High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sheridan High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/sheridan-school-district-2/sheridan-high-school/41372"}
