Thanks to you, our classroom has come alive with excitement, laughter, and learning. The new literacy materials have completely transformed our lessons. They have turned reading and writing from a task into an adventure or a game that teaches. My students light up when they recognize words from real life such as job applications, menus, workplace signs, and community schedules. Suddenly, literacy is not something that happens only in a book. It is something that helps them live, work, and connect with the world around them. Your kindness has brought joy, purpose, and pride into our little classroom family.\r\n\r\nThe growth we have seen is nothing short of amazing. Students who once avoided reading now beam with confidence as they volunteer to read aloud or write their own short messages. One student proudly reads every sign he sees on our community trips, while another fills out practice job forms with such determination that the whole class cheers. These moments, big and small, are daily reminders that learning is truly life changing when it is built on encouragement, love, and the right tools. The pride they feel when they realize, \"I can do this!\" is absolutely priceless.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has blessed us far beyond the walls of our classroom. You have given my students not only literacy skills but also dignity, independence, and hope for their future. They believe in themselves a little more each day because someone like you believed in them first. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for changing lives with your kindness. You have given us more than materials. You have given us confidence, joy, and a classroom filled with possibility.","fullyFundedDate":1760657455301,"projectUrl":"project/from-words-to-work-career-literacy-in-a/9829840/","projectTitle":"From Words to Work: Career Literacy in Action","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kathleen Miller","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2350575"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44469","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":277,"numTeachers":44,"percentFrplEligible":28,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":37,"percentWhite":45,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":8,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":"6.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":64.3,"schoolId":44469,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about John S Charlton School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"John S Charlton School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/delaware/caesar-rodney-school-district/john-s-charlton-school/44469"}
