Your generosity arrived at exactly the right moment for a new GA teacher building a program from scratch.\r\n\r\nHow we're using the new resources: The staff whiteboards have changed how we practice. Every student now has their own staff to write on. During sight-singing, I call out a pitch pattern, and each singer writes it, shows me their board, and sings it back. ] The bar chime has become our go-to for celebrations and exciting news (every time the students have something to celebrate we automatically chime!), and our new black folders and storage bins mean music is organized and ready to go, so we spend more time singing and less time searching.\r\n\r\nHow my students reacted: Many of my students come from families who work hard to make ends meet, and I could see how much it meant to them to have materials that were just for them. The black folders especially made them stand tall. They said they felt like \"real\" choir members. They love that they each get their own personal binder and they are being super responsible and professional about them! We will use them for Caroling around the school! \r\n\r\n\r\nYou've given my students a classroom that tells them they matter, and I'm so grateful. 🎶","fullyFundedDate":1786541663658,"projectUrl":"project/new-state-new-school-new-sound-buildi/10421046/","projectTitle":"New State, New School, New Sound: Building My Choir Room","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Elalfy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10566393_orig.jpg?crop=1501,1501,x36,y820&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1785455771299","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10566393"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_72497","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":368,"numTeachers":23,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":90,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"5 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"16.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":63.5,"schoolId":72497,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Path Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Path Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/dekalb-county-school-district/path-academy/72497"}
