We have managed to read 2 chapters and I am hoping that we can finish by the end of the year. \r\n\r\nMoving forward, I will use this class set each year to read about this historic event. The \"I Survived\" books are a quick yet engaging read. Thank you again for your giving nature. I, and my students, are enjoying the donation.","fullyFundedDate":1741483237266,"projectUrl":"project/grow-and-learn-through-books/9106319/","projectTitle":"Grow and Learn Through Books!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Allen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6373900_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1555028022752","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/sallen70"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_52654","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":510,"numTeachers":27,"percentFrplEligible":26,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":52,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":46,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":57.7,"schoolId":52654,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Heyburn Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Heyburn Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/idaho/minidoka-county-joint-school-district-331/heyburn-elementary-school/52654"}
