So I try my best to give them the best overall experience that I can give them. \r\n\r\nThe new tables that were funded have given my students a chance to enjoy reading even more. They are able to pick their own little table during ELA centers and use them as their own space to enjoy a collection of books they have chosen. They enjoy every minute of this time just because of the mini tables that were added to our library. \r\n\r\nOur magnetic board that was funded also made a great addition to our classroom. My scholars enjoy making words and putting the alphabet together during word work because of this amazing magnetic board.","fullyFundedDate":1748266269219,"projectUrl":"project/furniture-for-the-barnard-classroom/9368300/","projectTitle":"Furniture for the Barnard Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rivas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9580469_orig.jpg?crop=1242,1242,x0,y335&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747703407645","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9580469"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_99145","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":400,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":69,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":67,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":58.5,"schoolId":99145,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Rowe Charter School - Lower on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Rowe Charter School - Lower","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/chicago-public-school-district-299/rowe-elementary-charter-school/99145"}
