I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for your generous support of our classroom through Donors Choose. Because of your kindness, our high school students have access to much-needed snacks, school supplies, and hygiene products that are truly making a difference in their daily lives.\r\n\r\nFor many of our students, school can be a challenging environment—physically, mentally, and emotionally. The snacks you helped provide offer more than just nourishment; they provide energy and focus, helping students push through long school days without the distraction of hunger. I've seen students finish their work with greater concentration and enthusiasm simply because they had a small, healthy snack to sustain them.\r\n\r\nThe school supplies you donated are equally invaluable. With access to quality materials like notebooks, pens, and organizers, students are better equipped to engage in lessons, complete assignments, and stay organized. This support not only boosts their academic confidence but also encourages a sense of pride and responsibility in their education.\r\n\r\nLastly, the hygiene products you contributed have been a true blessing. They help students maintain personal dignity and comfort, which in turn fosters a more positive self-image and readiness to participate fully in school activities. For many, these essentials alleviate daily stressors that can otherwise interfere with their ability to focus and thrive.\r\n\r\nYour generosity is creating an environment where students feel cared for and supported. Because of you, they are better prepared to face each school day with confidence and resilience. On behalf of every student impacted, thank you for believing in them and investing in their success.\r\n\r\nWith sincere appreciation,","fullyFundedDate":1756476070717,"projectUrl":"project/basic-needs-for-extraordinary-students/9653996/","projectTitle":"Basic Needs for Extraordinary Students","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Anderson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9135445_orig.jpg?crop=215,215,x0,y41&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756241599737","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9135445"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_42114","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":859,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":45,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":64,"percentIndigenous":8,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"17.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":66.7,"schoolId":42114,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wasilla High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wasilla High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/alaska/mat-su-borough-school-district/wasilla-high-school/42114"}
