Your support has already made a noticeable difference in our classrooms, and we want to share just how meaningful your gift has been for our students.\r\n\r\nIn today's classrooms, technology is an essential tool—not just a convenience. With the new printer, we can now create colorful, engaging learning materials right from our classrooms—no more waiting in line for shared equipment or relying on limited central resources. From interactive math games to hands-on reading activities and custom writing prompts, students now have immediate access to materials tailored to their needs. This has boosted engagement and made learning more tangible and exciting.\r\n\r\nOne of the most thrilling things for our students has been seeing their work come to life in full color. They love printing their stories, poems, and projects to share with classmates and take home with pride. It's helping build their confidence and encouraging a deeper connection to their learning.\r\n\r\nThere's one student in particular, a quiet and thoughtful young learner, who has blossomed since we began using the printer. She used to shy away from sharing her writing, but now she eagerly prints her illustrated stories and reads them aloud to the class. The ability to present her work professionally has truly unlocked her voice.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, we are creating a learning environment that inspires creativity, independence, and joy. Your contribution is helping students not only learn more effectively but also feel seen and celebrated in their educational journey.","fullyFundedDate":1745519228442,"projectUrl":"project/a-printer-for-second-grade/9163290/","projectTitle":"A Printer for Second Grade","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hilling","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8278675_orig.jpg?crop=900,900,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1642618934775","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8278675"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44679","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":429,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":47,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":78.8,"schoolId":44679,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Glen Springs Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Glen Springs Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/alachua-county-school-district/glen-springs-elementary-school/44679"}
