Because of your generosity, I was able to create phonics task boxes filled with the materials my special education students desperately needed—resources that I could not have provided on my own.\r\n\r\nThese boxes, built around different word families and essential spelling rules, have become so much more than learning tools. For many of my dyslexic learners, they are a lifeline. The hands-on, multisensory activities give them a way to experience reading in a form that finally makes sense—something that feels possible instead of overwhelming. Watching their faces light up as they realize, *\"I can do this,\"* has been one of the greatest joys of my career.\r\n\r\nYour kindness has given my students moments of confidence they rarely feel, and the pride they show when working through their task boxes is truly priceless. You've helped create an environment where they feel capable, supported, and seen—an impact that will stay with them far beyond this school year.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in children you've never met and for touching their lives so deeply. Your gift has made a profound difference, and we are all so grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1755735387401,"projectUrl":"project/helping-amazing-special-education-studen/9611071/","projectTitle":"Helping Amazing Special Education Students Read With Phonics Task Boxes","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Howard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9068099_orig.jpg?crop=144,144,x0,y9&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755879702135","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9068099"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_32255","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1118,"numTeachers":69,"percentFrplEligible":85,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":34,"percentWhite":38,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"16.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":76.9,"schoolId":32255,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about New Berlin Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"New Berlin Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/duval-county-public-schools/new-berlin-elementary-school/32255"}
