Because of your kindness, we now have a 3M Laminator Kit, plenty of Scotch Thermal Laminating Pouches, and a full carton of copy paper—and these supplies have already made a wonderful difference in our learning every day.\r\nWe've been using the laminator to protect our alphabet charts, sight word cards, classroom labels, and student artwork. The children love seeing their creations \"shine\" once they're laminated! They take such pride in hanging up their laminated projects around the room and showing them off to visitors and their families. The laminator has also helped us create sturdy learning centers that can be reused again, keeping our materials fresh and fun for every student.\r\nThe copy paper has been a lifesaver, too! We've used it for printing coloring pages, handwriting practice sheets, and family newsletters. Having plenty of paper on hand means our little learners always have what they need for writing, drawing, and exploring new skills. \r\nOverall, I've seen not only improvement in their academic skills but, more importantly, a boost in their self-confidence and love for learning. Your generosity has made our classroom a brighter, more engaging space where students feel successful and proud of their accomplishments.\r\nThank you for believing in our little learners and helping them grow!","fullyFundedDate":1757439564823,"projectUrl":"project/laminate-and-learn/9433540/","projectTitle":"Laminate and Learn","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Rausch","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10033603_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1751046870767","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10033603"},{"teacherId":10006040,"projectId":9757826,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous donations, our speech therapy room is buzzing with creativity and learning!

These simple materials have opened the door for more consistent practice and independence during our sessions.\r\n\r\nYour support has truly made a difference in our classroom.

Because of your generosity, I was able to purchase individualized, high-quality resources that meet the unique needs of every student I work with. These materials have already made a huge difference in helping my students strengthen their communication skills in fun, engaging, and meaningful ways.\r\n\r\nThe new resources are especially exciting for my students because they feel personalized. Each child is able to work on materials that fit their goals—whether that's building vocabulary, practicing sounds, or improving social communication. The interactive games, colorful visuals, and hands-on activities keep them motivated and eager to participate. It's been wonderful to see how much more confident they are when they have the right tools to support their learning.\r\n\r\nSome of my students who were once hesitant to speak up in group settings have especially warmed to these new activities. With resources designed just for them, they're more willing to take risks, share answers, and celebrate their progress. The smile on a child's face when they successfully use a new word or sound is proof of how powerful these materials are. None of this would have been possible without your kindness and support.","fullyFundedDate":1757343246702,"projectUrl":"project/individualized-resources-for-all-communi/9342629/","projectTitle":"Individualized Resources for all Communicators","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Destiny","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10006040"},{"teacherId":10006040,"projectId":9302169,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our classroom through your generous donation. Because of you, our speech therapy room now has a beautiful new station that creates an exciting and functional space for our students. These simple additions have transformed the environment—students are excited to come to therapy, and they feel more confident practicing their speech sounds and communication skills.\r\n\r\nHaving the mirror allows students to watch themselves as they speak, helping them self‑correct and build independence. The chairs give them a comfortable place to practice in pairs or small groups, which encourages them to use their new skills outside of direct instruction. This project is already making a difference, and the impact will continue to grow as students carry these skills into their classrooms, homes, and everyday lives.","fullyFundedDate":1746785402662,"projectUrl":"project/mirror-mirror-empowering-voices-throug/9302169/","projectTitle":"Mirror, Mirror: Empowering Voices Through Independent Practice","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Destiny","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10006040"},{"teacherId":10006040,"projectId":9302469,"letterContent":"I want to express my deepest gratitude for your generous donation to my project on Donors Choose. I never imagined I would be so fortunate, it was like my students won the lottery. Your support provided the materials needed to create a much-needed calm down corner and sensory space in my speech therapy room — and the impact has already been profound.\r\n\r\nThis school year, I've worked with several students who experience intense sensory and self-regulation challenges. Until now, we lacked a designated area where they could safely and effectively decompress. Thanks to you, that has changed.\r\n\r\nThe sensory tools you helped provide — including tactile items, fidget tools, weighted materials, and visual aids — have given my students the opportunity to meet their sensory needs in a supportive, calming environment. Whether a student needs a quiet moment to regulate after a stressful transition or tools to stay grounded during a session, this space is now a vital resource in our room.\r\n\r\nAlready, I've seen students gravitate toward the area when they're feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated. What was once a challenging part of their day is now met with comfort and support. They are learning how to self-advocate, regulate their emotions, and return to learning and communication with renewed focus.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the importance of this project. Your donation has created a lasting impact that will continue to benefit students for years to come.","fullyFundedDate":1746785396961,"projectUrl":"project/the-calm-corner-a-sensory-space-for-bal/9302469/","projectTitle":"The Calm Corner: A Sensory Space for Balance and Growth","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Destiny","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10006040"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_14641","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":609,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":88,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":60.0,"schoolId":14641,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wheeler Attendance Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wheeler Attendance Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/mississippi/prentiss-county-school-district/wheeler-school/14641"}
