You are the special type of person that changes lives, lifts people up, and makes the world a better place. Thank you for your donation and your association with Donors Choose. There are people who don't donate because they assume everyone else is, and there are those who take up the torch and run with it. Thank you for being the latter, and for your kind and heartwarming donation.\r\n\r\nIndividuals like you are not only a joy to interact with and to be around, but also you are an inspiration. Thank you so much for being so refreshingly loving and giving as a person. The printer ink was a big hit with the kids in our classroom. We use it often to learn in our class. You are such an important part of our class by providing us with tools that help us become better students.\r\n\r\nKnowing that we are in a time of financial instability, your donation is extra special to us. Thank you for your generous financial support during this tumultuous time. We have been in school for a few months now and I love how students engage during our art time, all with a smile on their faces. Students can play games and learn important skills every day.\r\n\r\nThank you for making a difference through your compassion and generosity. This resource helped our students to grow into beautiful young men and women and future mentors. We can bond as a class and share our art creations with each other. We play games to solidify learning and to encourage and build new friendships with each other. We appreciate all that you have done to make this dream, thought and idea come true for us, our peers, and our community. We've got a lot of work ahead of us, and your donation has made it that much easier to get things done and thrust us forward. We thank you for your support and for your desire to help us succeed in this venture.\r\n\r\nThank you for being one of our donors and providing this resource for our classroom. Your concern for our classroom is above and beyond. Thanks to your continued support, we've been able to help students to access resources that would have been really hard to access otherwise. They say that money can't buy love, and that's a fact. However, you have shown your love for others through your donation. Thank you for creating a way to help so many students.","fullyFundedDate":1720275243997,"projectUrl":"project/promoting-classroom-safety-during-allerg/8440525/","projectTitle":"Promoting Classroom Safety During Allergy Season","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mititelu","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8490554_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1722205000286","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8490554"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_52690","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":477,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":72,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":66,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 4","studentTeacherRatio":"19.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":53.8,"schoolId":52690,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Payette Primary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Payette Primary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/idaho/payette-joint-school-district-371/payette-primary-school/52690"}
