Our third grade teacher is reading the book with her class, so her students are particularly enthusiastic about checking out these titles to read along.\r\n\r\nYour contribution also funded materials to repair damaged and worn books.

Students are able to keep hydrated during the day and work is kept dry. Students loved the water bottles and enjoyed personalizing them with stickers. \r\n Having the water bottles saved time to the refill station giving students more time to improve academic skills. Water stayed cool and fresh also limiting time to the refill station. \r\n Having these water bottles also helped to teach responsibility, we still had some temporarily lost. Having the water bottles the same color also made it easy to having the water bottles returned to their owner. The student body knew if they found a bottle left outside or somewhere else in the building that they belonged to someone in room eight. \r\n Once again thank you for helping our students stay hydrated and focused.","fullyFundedDate":1633788301004,"projectUrl":"project/keeping-our-brains-hydrated-in-our-thirs/5848050/","projectTitle":"Keeping Our Brains Hydrated in Our Thirst for Knowledge","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. AW","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7929932"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_64065","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":161,"numTeachers":17,"percentFrplEligible":87,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":55,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"9.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.3,"schoolId":64065,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about W Arthur Sewell Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"W Arthur Sewell Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/tucson-unified-school-district/w-arthur-sewell-elementary-school/64065"}
