Because of your support, I now have the tools to help my students navigate those feelings with confidence.\r\n\r\nYour donation has already started making a difference in several meaningful ways. The new books have allowed us to start \"Mirror Moments,\" where students see their own struggles and triumphs reflected in diverse characters. The craft items has turned my \"Calm Down Corner\" into a space of expression and self-reflection. Sometimes, a child can't say they're frustrated, but they can show it through the art they create. The empowering activity kits are teaching my students the \"Power of Yet\"—the idea that even if they can't do something now, they have the tools to get there.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in the hearts of my students. You are helping to give these children the lifelong gift of emotional intelligence and self-worth.","fullyFundedDate":1725887899951,"projectUrl":"project/reaching-for-the-stars-with-social-emoti/8748134/","projectTitle":"Reaching for the Stars with Social Emotional Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Williams","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8943191_orig.png?crop=242,242,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1774544830623","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8943191"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_84012","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":600,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":19,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":75,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.9,"schoolId":84012,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Tumbleweed Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Tumbleweed Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/palmdale-school-district/tumbleweed-elementary-school/84012"}
