From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your donations.\r\n\r\nThe students loved seeing the variety of resources being provided to them and were shocked at how much was available to them at no cost. They were super appreciative and it's been great seeing them get used to having the drawer and coming when they need something. Even students from last year stop by to get things from the updated drawers! \r\n\r\nThe goal is to continue stocking and even adding new items to the drawer. I still get suggestions from students and am improving the setup every day so that the items are easily and readily available to students so they feel safe and ready to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1755731691408,"projectUrl":"project/the-everything-drawer-everything-for-sa/9608393/","projectTitle":"The Everything Drawer: Everything for Safe, Healthy Kids","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cervantes","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9755347_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y40&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726619974425","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/lamscervantes"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_26657","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1040,"numTeachers":79,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":46,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":14,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":52.0,"schoolId":26657,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Freeport High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Freeport High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/freeport-school-district-145/freeport-high-school/26657"}
