I'd like to share how we are using the resources provided. The Spanish phrase labels have been placed on the wall for students to see and use. They noticed them right away. The workbook has been used to help students practice speaking Spanish. The colorful pens and sticky notes are used to help students write notes in class and keep their work neat and fun. The printer ink has come in handy for printing out classroom material.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw all the new materials, they were very excited! They especially liked the fidget toys, which helped them stay calm and focused during class, and the snacks, of course. Students participated in games such as loteria and were excited to earn themselves snacks. The desk organizer has helped keep our classroom organized, and the USB drive has helped me save classroom assignments that required lots of computer memory, such as speaking videos.\r\n\r\nWe appreciate your support!","fullyFundedDate":1743698944770,"projectUrl":"project/clase-de-espaol-classroom-items/8952861/","projectTitle":"Clase De Español Classroom Items","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ramos","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9750465"},{"teacherId":9777416,"projectId":8819477,"letterContent":"I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude for the speaker and cart we recently received for our counseling office. These new tools have already proven to be invaluable for the presentations we hold with families, especially when discussing crucial topics like financial aid and college information.\r\n\r\nThe speaker has greatly enhanced our ability to communicate clearly with larger groups, ensuring that everyone in the room can hear and engage with the material. This is particularly important in our presentations, where the information shared can sometimes be overwhelming. The speaker ensures that no one misses out on important details, creating a more effective and engaging experience for everyone involved.\r\n\r\nEqually helpful is the cart, which has made it so much easier for us to transport the speaker and any other presentation materials from one room to another. Its mobility has streamlined our setup process, saving time and effort as we prepare for these sessions. The cart allows us to set up more efficiently, making the entire experience smoother for both our team and the families we serve.\r\n\r\nThank you again for providing us with these essential resources. They've already had a noticeable impact on the quality of our presentations, and we're confident they'll continue to make a positive difference for many families to come.","fullyFundedDate":1732718946422,"projectUrl":"project/resources-for-the-counseling-department/8819477/","projectTitle":"Resources for the Counseling Department","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lopes Cunha","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9777416"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_32926","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1867,"numTeachers":71,"percentFrplEligible":33,"percentAsian":11,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":59,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":17,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"26.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.4,"schoolId":32926,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Rio Americano High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Rio Americano High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/san-juan-unified-school-district/rio-americano-high-school/32926"}
