The students are absolutely thrilled to have them as an incentive, and the excitement is obvious—every time they walk into the space and see those cozy spots, their faces light up. It's created a buzz of positivity and motivation throughout the room, and it's wonderful to see students so eager to earn time in them. The chairs have instantly become one of the most sought-after rewards, and they're being used nonstop!\r\n\r\nEven more impressively, the comfy chairs have sparked a big shift in how students are using their CATS tickets. Instead of holding onto them without purpose, students are now actively engaging in positive behavior to earn tickets and actually spend them. It's been such a fun and effective way to promote good habits, and we truly can't thank you enough. Your thoughtful support has made a huge impact, and we're so grateful for your generosity and care!","fullyFundedDate":1736953978867,"projectUrl":"project/alt-seating-class-supplies/8977158/","projectTitle":"Alt Seating & Class Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bandy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9089241_orig.jpg?crop=2407,2407,x399,y932&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1688959961301","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9089241"},{"teacherId":2529597,"projectId":8642125,"letterContent":"Thank you for generosity in providing much needed supplies for my classroom. Students eyes sparkled up when they noticed a brand new box of crayons. We have been using broken crayons that collected over the years so this was a very much needed upgrade. All the supplies provided will allow us to continue to work on big projects for the remainder of the school year. Students are currently creating journals on the westward expansion and have been using our new materials to decorate their books. Once we come back from Spring break they will be working on 3D models of wagons from the 1800's.\r\nWhile we haven't had a chance to use our new books yet, the kids have taken notice of them and borrowed them to learn more from different topics in history when they finish work early. I will be using the books for their end of the year projects where they'll get to design a wax museum. The books will be an invaluable resource. We have used the watercolors a few times to paint presidential portraits and end of quarter celebrations. The kids have been having a blast using them. \r\n\r\nThere aren't enough words to describe how thankful I am for the resources. We will be able to continue using the items into the upcoming school year as well.","fullyFundedDate":1732049627741,"projectUrl":"project/bringing-art-literature-to-history/8642125/","projectTitle":"Bringing Art & Literature to History","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morales","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2529597_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1661387586960","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2529597"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_58836","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":884,"numTeachers":48,"percentFrplEligible":31,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":37,"percentIndigenous":3,"percentLatinx":41,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"5 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"18.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.9,"schoolId":58836,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Madison 1 Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Madison 1 Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/madison-school-district/madison-1-middle-school/58836"}
