They began using pen to \"fix\" the problem but quickly figured out they would run out of space when they did errors. \r\n\r\nHaving these basic materials available has been awesome. There are no more excuses of not being able to do work for lack of pencils. But on the same note, they are not bothered by the idea of having new pencils and even some cool looking pencils in their hands. Thank you, Donors, for this kind act for all my students.","fullyFundedDate":1771190084901,"projectUrl":"project/keep-me-sharp/9940867/","projectTitle":"Keep Me Sharp!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Estrada","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8398471_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757086983009","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8398471"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_49736","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":301,"numTeachers":13,"percentFrplEligible":66,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":32,"percentIndigenous":3,"percentLatinx":61,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"23.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":0.0,"schoolId":49736,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Zillah Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Zillah Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/zillah-school-district-205/zillah-middle-school/49736"}
