Thanks to your support, each of my students now has access to engaging, age-appropriate, and informative reading materials. These magazines have quickly become a favorite in our classroom. The students love getting to have their own copy. When I say, \"Today we are going to read a Scholastic News...\" they are thrilled. The Scholastic News magazines have opened doors to meaningful conversations and engaging learning experiences that would not have been possible without your generosity.\r\n\r\nYour donation has not only enriched our classroom but also reminded my students of the kindness and support that exists in our community. Our school used to fund this subscription but due to budget cuts, they are unable to buy them for us anymore. Knowing that someone believes in their potential and is willing to invest in their education has made a lasting impression on them—and on me as their teacher.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you for your generosity and for being a partner in my students' educational journey. Your support truly makes a difference.","fullyFundedDate":1730733495867,"projectUrl":"project/bringing-the-world-to-our-classroom-with/8865616/","projectTitle":"Bringing the World to Our Classroom with Scholastic News","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Michel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9797646_orig.jpg?crop=1559,1559,x438,y330&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756350602051","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9797646"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_74949","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":430,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":34,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":65,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":26,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.1,"schoolId":74949,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Legacy Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Legacy Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/st-vrain-valley-school-district-re-1j/legacy-elementary-school/74949"}
