You have made 2025/26 school year one of the best for us. Our small community of amazing students and I have been so grateful for our new space. Most of our students live in poverty and this project has changed our world. Having nice new high quality items helps them feel important and special. \r\n\r\nThe students love eating lunch in my classroom or on the patio with friends. It's a space for students who need an alternative to the loud and overwhelming experience in the cafeteria. Some people can handle that and others not so much. Having this space as an option has changed our year. When you meet the needs of young children, you get to see behaviors change and hearts grow.

Your kindness and giving heart has transformed our year already. The students absolutely love coming to my counselor classroom. \r\n\r\nMy classroom has been a safe space for many of our students who live in poverty and typically do not have nice things. The beautiful furniture this project has provided allows them to experience a warm, cozy, and inclusive space that is open to all students. We have lunch bunches, whole class lessons, small group and individual counseling, and in general just a space for them to take a break to re-set.","fullyFundedDate":1758833492697,"projectUrl":"project/come-as-you-are/9389783/","projectTitle":"Come as You Are!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jodie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8914507_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y1008&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1704394602129","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/jodielynn"},{"teacherId":8929621,"projectId":9503486,"letterContent":"My students and I are incredibly grateful for your generous support of our project, \"Support Full Inclusion!\" Because of you, our classroom is filled with engaging tools that are already making a meaningful difference in our students' learning and daily routines.\r\n\r\nThe children absolutely love the Classroom Traffic Light. It helps them understand when a learning activity is about to end and when it's time to transition into social group play. This has been especially helpful for students who use visuals to communicate. Some students excitedly told me, \"Teacher, teacher, our classroom traffic light looks like the road traffic lights!\" They were so proud when I nodded in agreement.\r\n\r\nThe Spinning Wheel has quickly become one of our most versatile and loved tools. We use it daily for academic games such as spinning for random numbers, CVC words, irregular words, and alphabet practice. Each activity involves reading and writing, making learning both fun and meaningful. On Fridays, we have a special ritual where we spin the wheel with three students' names to win small prizes. This has added so much joy, motivation, and excitement while encouraging collaboration and positive behavior.\r\n\r\nOur dry-erase markers are essential for daily spelling, writing, and number practice. The children are eager to write more letters, words, and numbers without frustration. Their confidence and penmanship have improved greatly. These little ones are truly creative, curious, and confident learners.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials arrived, the children asked me, \"Teacher, did you buy all of these things?\" They were so excited to help open the boxes. I explained the DonorsChoose project and how generous donors across the United States made this possible. When I told them that the amazing donors were The Maxwell/Hanrahan Foundation, they joyfully repeated the name and said, \"Wow! The Maxwell/Hanrahan Foundation!\" They were absolutely overjoyed.\r\n\r\nThank you for making such a positive difference in my students' lives by supporting our project. Without your generosity, I would have had to spend a significant portion of my small salary to purchase these much-needed materials. Your kindness and support truly mean the world to us.","fullyFundedDate":1758833175469,"projectUrl":"project/support-full-inclusion/9503486/","projectTitle":"Support Full Inclusion","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Droz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8929621_orig.jpg?crop=1275,1275,x242,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713841248937","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8929621"},{"teacherId":10171904,"projectId":9581006,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our speech therapy room. Because of you, our space has been transformed into a welcoming, engaging environment that supports both learning and regulation for our students.\r\n\r\nWe are using the new rainbow area rug daily during small-group and circle-based speech activities. It provides a clear, inviting space for students to sit together while practicing turn-taking, listening, and expressive language skills. The wobbly stools have been especially impactful for students who need movement to stay focused—many are now able to attend longer and participate more actively during sessions. The colorful speech therapy posters are displayed on our walls and are regularly referenced during lessons to support vocabulary, sentence structure, articulation cues, and self-monitoring strategies.\r\n\r\nOne specific moment that stood out was during a small-group session when a student who often struggles to stay seated was able to remain engaged for the entire activity while using a wobbly stool. He proudly raised his hand to share answers. It was a wonderful example of how the right environment can support communication success.\r\n\r\nWhen students first walked into the room and saw the new materials, they were visibly excited. Several commented on the bright rug and asked if they could sit on the stools right away. The space immediately felt more comfortable and fun, and students were eager to participate in therapy activities.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we will continue using these materials to support ongoing speech and language goals, including improving expressive language, articulation, and social communication skills. The rug and seating will support collaborative group lessons, while the posters will help students independently apply strategies and vocabulary across sessions. Your generosity has created a space where students feel motivated, supported, and confident as they work toward their communication goals.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving our students such a positive and meaningful learning environment. Your kindness has made a lasting impact on our speech therapy program.","fullyFundedDate":1758833173493,"projectUrl":"project/raindrops-to-rainbows-a-new-speech-ther/9581006/","projectTitle":"Raindrops to Rainbows: A New Speech Therapy Classroom!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Andreis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10171904"},{"teacherId":9175319,"projectId":9604318,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for funding my latest DonorsChoose project!
