Because of you, our high school library—already a place where students come to read, connect, and recharge—can now offer even more opportunities for curiosity, creativity, and community. Your donation is helping us launch a \"Somewhat Virtual Book Club,\" allowing students to connect with authors and peers across the country. For many, this will be their first chance to interact directly with writers and engage in meaningful book discussions beyond our school, deepening their love of reading.\r\n\r\nYour support also funded a dedicated puzzle table, which is quickly becoming a favorite low-stress spot where students collaborate, laugh, and build connections during off blocks and lunch. This simple addition has already encouraged critical thinking, teamwork, and friendship in a relaxed, welcoming space.\r\n\r\nTogether, these new experiences make our library even more inclusive and inspiring. Thank you for believing in our students and in the power of a vibrant school library. Your generosity truly makes a difference every day.","fullyFundedDate":1755743022351,"projectUrl":"project/piecing-together-our-stories/9586464/","projectTitle":"Piecing Together Our Stories","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bass","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8051469_orig.jpg?crop=1536,1536,x0,y204&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1634936561730","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8051469"},{"teacherId":8051469,"projectId":9302174,"letterContent":"Thank you for helping bring Educated by Tara Westover into the hands of our high school book club members.

These graphic novels were a delight to teach and to present to my students. They were thrilled at the idea of reading a 'comic'. \r\n\r\nDue to the format of the text, I was able to engage some of my struggling readers and keep them involved in higher-level, critical thinking discussions because they did not feel behind with a text-heavy novel. \r\n\r\nAs for the students in the class who are artists, they loved dissecting the use of color and images to get narration across and talking about how images and narration are the same/different. \r\n\r\nThank you for providing my students with this opportunity. I hope that I will be able to get more in the future, so I can involve more of my classes.

I firmly believe that for many of my students, addiction to phones and social media is one of the biggest distractions and detriments to learning. The phone caddy has been a revelation!! After some initial pushback, my classes have all reluctantly accepted, and many students have embraced the new phone caddy. I have had more than one student tell me how they appreciate that I don't allow them to have their phones on them in class. There are less distractions and more engagement during class time. \r\nWe have also made good use of the charging stations and whiteboard markers. These allow students to charge and work on their Chromebooks during class and engage in geography assignments via individual whiteboards during lessons. \r\nFrom the bottom of my heart, thank you for your donation.
