Your kindness and support will have a lasting impact on our students' learning experience in the technology room.\r\n\r\nThese headphones will provide students with the ability to engage in individualized learning activities without distractions, allowing them to focus on interactive lessons, educational games, and creative projects. Whether they are practicing literacy skills, exploring coding programs, or working on our student-led news productions, these headphones will help them stay engaged and immersed in their learning.\r\n\r\nThe excitement among the students was immediate! They were so happy to hear that we will now have more working headphones in the lab. For many students, this means they can concentrate better, participate more confidently, and take ownership of their learning in new and meaningful ways. \r\n\r\nYour generosity has truly made a difference in your classroom. Because of you, our students have the tools they need to thrive in a technology-rich learning environment. Thank you for investing in their education and supporting our mission to prepare them for the future.","fullyFundedDate":1741376712676,"projectUrl":"project/hear-learn-and-succeed-headphones-for/9099608/","projectTitle":"Hear, Learn, and Succeed: Headphones for Tech Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mullen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4809214_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1524493481329","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/a-e-donahue"},{"teacherId":4809214,"projectId":8914601,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donations.

I had mentioned the fact that I wanted to get them, but once they saw how nice and comfortable they were, they instantly got excited. I needed to make a system for kids to be able to use them. We have a good schedule right now so that everyone has the opportunity to use them. They also have been showing a great deal of respect for the chairs which further shows their appreciation. Right now the kids have been using the chairs to read or do quiet projects.
