Thanks to you, my students now have binders, colorful cardstock, markers, and erasers, items that may seem simple, but have already made a big difference in how we learn and function each day. Your support gave us more than just supplies; it gave us the chance to start fresh, get organized, and feel confident walking into class.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, staying organized has always been a challenge for many students. They come with big hearts and busy minds, but sometimes struggle to keep track of all the moving pieces, notes, assignments, handouts, and deadlines. The binders you helped provide are now part of our daily routine. Each student has their own system, and it's been amazing to see them flip right to the correct section, highlight key notes with markers, and use colorful cardstock to create tabs and study tools that actually make sense to them. \r\n\r\nI've noticed a real shift in attitude. Some students who were once easily overwhelmed are now more focused and prepared. They remind each other to \"check your binder\" or \"color-code that section,\" and I love seeing them help one another with ideas for staying on track. Our classroom feels calmer, more efficient, and even more creative. These supplies didn't just help us get organized, they gave us structure, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of my heart, thank you for making this happen. Your kindness has had an immediate and lasting impact, and I hope you know how much we appreciate you.","fullyFundedDate":1733294673951,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-organization-to-support-divers/8611495/","projectTitle":"Classroom Organization to Support Diverse Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wilkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9640768"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_68923","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":128,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":14,"percentWhite":8,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":74,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":40.0,"schoolId":68923,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Estrella High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Estrella High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/leona-group/estrella-high-school/68923"}
