Thanks to your generosity, we now have a variety of fidget tools in our classroom that are making a real difference every day.\r\n\r\nThese tools have become more than just classroom items—they are lifelines for many of my students with disabilities. With them, my students are more focused, less anxious, and better able to engage in learning. One student who used to struggle with staying seated is now able to participate in whole group instruction while calmly using a fidget. Another student who often felt overwhelmed is now using a sensory tool to manage their emotions independently. These are small victories that add up to big growth over time.\r\n\r\nYour contribution has helped create a more inclusive and supportive learning environment where every child feels empowered to succeed. On behalf of my students and myself, thank you for being a part of our journey and for helping us turn challenges into opportunities.","fullyFundedDate":1743789694154,"projectUrl":"project/focus-feel-flourish-fidget-tools-for/9191944/","projectTitle":"Focus, Feel, Flourish: Fidget Tools for Student Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Catli","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6629022_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x320,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1565924645654","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6629022"},{"teacherId":7908918,"projectId":9080976,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom!

The protective cases and screen covers you helped fund have made a tremendous difference—our technology is now safer, more durable, and more accessible for learning, exploration, and creativity.\r\n\r\nWhile many people are used to using tablets at home for entertainment or basic tasks, in our classroom, these iPads are powerful learning tools. Students use them to practice math skills with interactive apps, listen to books that support their reading fluency and enjoy educational games. The technology allows us to differentiate instruction, giving each student what they need to succeed at their own pace.\r\n\r\nWhat's been most exciting for my students is the confidence they now have in using the iPads. Before, there was always some hesitation—they worried about dropping or damaging the devices, especially during hands-on or group activities. But now, with the sturdy cases in place, they use the iPads more freely and with greater enthusiasm, which has opened up more opportunities for exploration and creativity.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular, who had always been refusing to use a device is now accessing interactive and engaging apps to increase his reading and math skills. \r\n\r\nYour donation didn't just protect equipment—you protected learning opportunities. You've helped create a space where technology can thrive, and in turn, so can our students. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for believing in them.","fullyFundedDate":1737196343372,"projectUrl":"project/protecting-learning-tools-ipad-accessor/9059269/","projectTitle":"Protecting Learning Tools: iPad Accessories for Student Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Catli","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6629022_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x320,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1565924645654","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6629022"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_5042","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":537,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":79,"percentAsian":18,"percentBlack":13,"percentWhite":11,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":43,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"20.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":76.3,"schoolId":5042,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Crescent Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Crescent Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/fairfield-suisun-unified-school-district/crescent-elementary-school/5042"}
