It was pure joy to watch the kids grow!\r\n\r\nOne of our kiddos spent nearly 30 minutes putting together the different puzzles—her look of triumph when she finished was priceless. Another child cuddled up with one of the books and she said so excitedly \"she look like me\" and insisted we read it \"one more time\"... four times in a row! These seemingly small moments are actually huge steps in their learning and development—and it's all thanks to your kindness.\r\n\r\nFrom me, and especially the little ones, thank you for caring, for giving, and for believing in the power of early learning.","fullyFundedDate":1747158318594,"projectUrl":"project/unlock-creativity-help-students-learn-w/9197267/","projectTitle":"Unlock Creativity: Help Students Learn With Books, Paint, and Puzzles","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jasmine","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9973337_orig.jpg?crop=1404,1404,x133,y20&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742582940978","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9973337"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_119129","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":10,"percentWhite":77,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":8,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"US Census Data for the surrounding geographic area","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"Census ZCTA","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":56.7,"schoolId":119129,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Riverbend Head Start Collinsville Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Riverbend Head Start Collinsville Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/office-of-head-start/collinsville-head-start/119129"}
