These snacks have been extremely useful and truly make a difference. They are especially helpful on days when students have to stay beyond their allotted time.\r\n\r\nSome of our students eat as early as 10:30 a.m. for brunch, so by the time they arrive at aftercare at 3:30 p.m., they are very hungry. A simple granola bar can feel like gold to them. The students genuinely look forward to receiving these extra snacks.\r\n\r\nWhile there are times when a student may not prefer a particular snack, they are always grateful for what they receive. Many of them even tell their friends about the \"cool snacks\" they get in aftercare.\r\n\r\nI am very excited to apply for new snacks for the upcoming semester. The students have already shared great ideas about the types of snacks they would enjoy, and I look forward to continuing to support them in this way.","fullyFundedDate":1755522439247,"projectUrl":"project/a-little-rejuvenation/9463286/","projectTitle":"A Little Rejuvenation!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ward-Robinson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4084119_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753536451493","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/d-wardrobinsongpa"},{"teacherId":4084119,"projectId":9261477,"letterContent":"Supporting Our Young Ladies\r\n\r\nThese items have been such a great help to our young ladies.

Shape magnets help children recognize and form letters by guiding their hand movements and improving their fine motor coordination. These colorful, hands-on tools keep students engaged while reinforcing correct letter shapes and directionality. White magic boards offer a reusable space where students can practice writing without fear of making mistakes. They encourage experimentation and frequent practice, which builds confidence and fluency in early writing skills. Together, these materials create a fun, supportive environment where young learners can develop essential writing abilities in an interactive and motivating way. We are truly grateful for the generous donation that made these valuable learning tools available to our students.","fullyFundedDate":1737846729540,"projectUrl":"project/little-by-little-tracing-big-things/9070495/","projectTitle":"Little by Little Tracing Big Things","teacherDisplayName":"Meastra Luisa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9686640_orig.jpg?crop=270,270,x494,y765&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723944063507","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9686640"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_109240","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":700,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":27,"percentWhite":7,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":59,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"31.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":66.7,"schoolId":109240,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Global Preparatory Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Global Preparatory Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/indiana/indianapolis-public-school-district/global-prepratory-academy-opens-fall-2016-/109240"}
