Your support has made a wonderful difference in our first-grade dual-language classroom, providing my students with essential supplies that help make learning more engaging, creative, and meaningful.\r\n\r\nThanks to your kindness, we now have crayons, glue sticks, dry-erase markers, magnetic erasers, laminating pouches, and an electric crayon sharpener. These materials are helping us create more hands-on learning opportunities throughout our school day. Students can use the crayons and glue sticks for creative projects, while the dry-erase markers and magnetic erasers allow them to practice phonics, sight words, spelling, and writing skills in a fun and interactive way.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite parts of receiving new classroom supplies is seeing the excitement on my students' faces! Having colorful, fresh materials available makes even our daily learning routines feel special. These resources help encourage students to take pride in their work and become more independent learners.\r\n\r\nAs we continue our reading and writing lessons, we will use these materials to practice building sentences, identifying sounds, recognizing high-frequency words, and responding to stories. The laminating pouches will also allow me to create reusable learning activities, giving students opportunities to practice important skills repeatedly throughout the school year.\r\n\r\nTeaching in a Title I school means that many of my students depend on the resources available in our classroom. Your generosity helps ensure that every child has access to the materials they need to participate, learn, and succeed.\r\n\r\n**You have done more than donate school supplies. You have helped create opportunities for little learners to build confidence, express their creativity, and develop a love for learning. \r\n\r\nOn behalf of my first-grade students and myself, thank you for believing in our classroom and investing in their future. We are truly grateful for your kindness and support!","fullyFundedDate":1784087861132,"projectUrl":"project/essential-supplies-for-student-success/10342335/","projectTitle":"Essential Supplies for Student Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ipina","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9074390_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y304&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1720707451866","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9074390"},{"teacherId":10546926,"projectId":10371129,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting my classroom by donating a color printer! It has been amazing to print colorful anchor charts, decodable books, homework, and so much more for my students. Each week, I print two decodable stories for us to read in class, and afterward, my students get to take their stories home to enjoy and reread. Having these stories in color makes reading more appealing and engaging for my young learners. The printer is also ink-efficient, allowing me to make the most of this wonderful resource. Your generosity is making a meaningful difference in my classroom, and I am truly grateful!","fullyFundedDate":1784171348139,"projectUrl":"project/help-my-students-practice-and-grow-with/10371129/","projectTitle":"Help My Students Practice and Grow With Classroom Resources","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Powell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10546926_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1783568075150","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10546926"},{"teacherId":10063375,"projectId":9431871,"letterContent":"Our class has really enjoyed all the new supplies! The headphones have been a total game-changer during centers and online learning time — it's so much easier for students to stay focused and actually hear their lessons without all the background noise. The chair covers have been a fun surprise too; the kids love having their own special spot, and it's made our room look so bright and welcoming.\r\n\r\nThe new books have been getting a lot of attention during quiet reading time. It's been great to see students grab a book just because it looks interesting and dive right in. A few of my more reluctant readers have even started picking out new favorites.\r\n\r\nOverall, everything has helped make our classroom feel more engaging, comfortable, and student-centered. We're so thankful for the generosity that made it happen — the kids notice and appreciate it every single day!","fullyFundedDate":1755521977105,"projectUrl":"project/kindergarten-classroom/9431871/","projectTitle":"Kindergarten Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Franqui","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10063375_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y77&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750816540051","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10063375"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_54746","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":675,"numTeachers":57,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":9,"percentWhite":15,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":71,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":49.4,"schoolId":54746,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Ventura Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Ventura Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/the-school-district-of-osceola-county/ventura-elementary-school/54746"}
