The bean bag seats and seat cushions have already brought so much joy to my students. They love having flexible and comfortable seating options, and it has transformed the way they approach learning and creating. Instead of feeling confined, they are able to relax, think big, and express themselves more freely.\r\n\r\nThe impact on our classroom environment has been incredible. The new seating has opened up the space and made it more inviting, encouraging students to collaborate, share ideas, and take creative risks. They feel a greater sense of ownership and pride in our theatre room, which has helped strengthen our community. Your generosity made this possible, and I am truly grateful for the way you've invested in my students' creativity and growth.","fullyFundedDate":1754672285355,"projectUrl":"project/flexible-seats-bold-performances/9534797/","projectTitle":"Flexible Seats, Bold Performances","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gerald","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp5071677_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1525955148003","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/msgerald420"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_109217","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":336,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":97,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"5 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":34.4,"schoolId":109217,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about KIPP District of Columbia - Valor Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"KIPP District of Columbia - Valor Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/district-of-columbia/kipp-dc-public-schools/kipp-dc-valor-academy/109217"}
