My students are loving the opportunity to sit, read, and explore on our new rugs. They also have loved getting to experience a different side of library time--one that isn't strictly about books.\r\nWhen our new items arrived, my students were in awe. Between wanting to be the first kid to put their feet on our new rugs, to also wanting to explore our building blocks, to also wanting to play with some of our new games--my students couldn't be happier to explore all the library has to offer. Your generous donation has helped to make the library less of a testing and meeting center for adults, and more of a kid-friendly space that my students love being in.\r\nMany of my students have never been in a library outside of a school setting. My hope is that because of your generosity, my students' will see the library as their space that they can read, learn, and enjoy.

Your support filled not just our snack bin, but also a very real need in our day-to-day learning environment.

The laminating sheets have been key in supplying the students with math tools such as 100 charts and multiplication tables.

The new rocking chair has transformed our reading area into a cozy space that the students love to come and listen to a story.\r\n\r\nWhen our new items were delivered, my students were very excited.

This rug has transformed our library into a fun, cozy, and popular place to take a break and enjoy reading.\r\nWhen our new rug was delivered, buzz grew pretty immediately, and students who were not always excited to come to visit the library were rolling through the doors to see the new addition. They excitement was palpable as I unrolled the rug and the students were begging to feel how soft the new carpet was. The students were happily surprised and amazed that folks they had never met were supporting them along their educational journey.\r\nBecause of the design of the rug, each student has their own space to sit comfortably to listen to a story, or to read to themselves. During open library time, it is a favorite hangout spot where students can take a quiet break or explore new books. Even middle school students love to find a spot on the rug to finish assignments on their Chromebooks, or dive into a new book or graphic novel.\r\nAgain, thank you so much for your generous donation and support of our library. The students are greatly enjoying our new rug. Your generosity is a tangible example of kindness. Thank you so much for supporting our students and making our library a place students love to come to.","fullyFundedDate":1733164601856,"projectUrl":"project/cozy-up-for-storytime-snug-as-a-bug-in/8739194/","projectTitle":"Cozy Up for Storytime--Snug as a Bug in a...","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Heather","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9729882_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757375643442","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9729882"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_40102","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":451,"numTeachers":27,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":57,"percentIndigenous":5,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"16.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":73.5,"schoolId":40102,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Buckeye School of the Arts on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Buckeye School of the Arts","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/gateway-unified-school-district/buckeye-school-of-the-arts/40102"}
