By integrating real-world financial principles into our daily routines, this initiative provides students with meaningful, hands-on experience in earning, budgeting, and managing money. Your support makes it possible for students to engage in authentic learning that strengthens essential life skills such as financial planning, decision-making, and prioritizing needs over wants.\r\n\r\nThrough earning classroom currency, meeting regular financial obligations, and making choices in our classroom store, students gain a deeper understanding of how their actions impact their financial outcomes. They learn to budget, save, and practice delayed gratification—skills that will benefit them far beyond the classroom. This system also encourages independence and personal responsibility, helping students recognize the direct connection between their behaviors, decisions, and opportunities.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, students are not only excited and engaged, but also building a foundation for future financial success. Thank you for investing in meaningful learning experiences that empower them to thrive both now and in the years ahead.","fullyFundedDate":1755521939347,"projectUrl":"project/money-smart-earning-saving-spending-r/9597094/","projectTitle":"Money Smart: Earning, Saving, Spending Right","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Krueger","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7258751_orig.png?crop=334,334,x31,y63&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1591124451043","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrskrueger20"},{"teacherId":2672565,"projectId":7468678,"letterContent":"This desk has had a remarkable impact on student engagement and learning. Students are incredibly eager to come up and use the desk, often treating it as a special opportunity to showcase their work. Being able to stand at the front of the room and adjust the desk to their height gives them a sense of ownership and pride. It provides a dedicated space where they can display their projects, present ideas, and feel confident in their learning. This simple change in environment has boosted their motivation and made sharing their work a more meaningful experience.\r\n\r\nIn addition to being a presentation space, the desk serves as a valuable teaching and learning tool. It's frequently used to display visual aids for math and language activities, helping to make abstract concepts more accessible and engaging. The hooks on the sides of the desk hold task cards that students can access independently to extend their learning. These cards offer enrichment opportunities and reinforce key skills, empowering students to take initiative in their academic growth.","fullyFundedDate":1691030573247,"projectUrl":"project/student-work-desk/7468678/","projectTitle":"Student Work Desk","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Jackson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2672565_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1533750339783","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsjacksonrm13"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_40322","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":605,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":12,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":8,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":57,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"23.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":79.2,"schoolId":40322,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Josephine Chrysler Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Josephine Chrysler Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/stanislaus-union-school-district/josephine-chrysler-elementary-school/40322"}
