These resources are more than just tools; they represent opportunity, possibility, and a richer, more engaging educational experience.\r\n\r\nFor many of my students, access to high-quality materials and engaging, hands-on learning experiences can make a world of difference. Many come from under-resourced communities, and while they bring so much creativity, curiosity, and resilience to the classroom, they often face challenges that no child should have to navigate alone. Your donation helps level the playing field—it sends a clear message to my students that there are people out there who care about their success, who believe in their potential, and who are willing to invest in their futures.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting aspects of this project is how quickly it is already transforming the energy in our classroom. The day the materials arrived, my students' eyes lit up with excitement. They couldn't wait to explore, ask questions, and dive into new learning opportunities. I saw immediate changes—not only in engagement, but in confidence and collaboration. It's incredible what a difference the right tools can make.\r\n\r\nIn a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming or uncertain, your generosity is a powerful reminder of the good that exists in people. It has inspired not only me as a teacher, but also my students, who are learning through your example what it means to be part of a caring community. We've talked about the meaning of giving, gratitude, and how acts of kindness can ripple outward in ways we may never fully realize.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of my heart, thank you for supporting our classroom. Your gift has planted seeds that will continue to grow—through every lesson learned, every challenge overcome, and every smile sparked by discovery.","fullyFundedDate":1660583784816,"projectUrl":"project/anxiety-free-in-grade-3/6409496/","projectTitle":"Anxiety Free in Grade 3!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Horn","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8430715_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1651096674801","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8430715"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_94119","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":765,"numTeachers":61,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":9,"percentWhite":11,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":71,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":67.0,"schoolId":94119,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Flora Ridge Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Flora Ridge Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/the-school-district-of-osceola-county/flora-ridge-elementary-school/94119"}
