You could feel the excitement and relief in the room! For many of my students, having simple, reliable snacks means they can focus on learning rather than worrying about hunger. The wipes and tissues help us keep our classroom clean and healthy—a big deal for our group, since we share materials and work in close spaces all day.\r\n\r\nNow, our classroom feels more comfortable and cared for. During small-group reading and math, my students can grab a quick snack to refocus and stay energized. It's incredible how something as simple as crackers or fruit snacks can transform a sluggish morning into a productive and joyful session. The new supplies also help us maintain routines of independence and responsibility, as students take turns helping sanitize tables and organize our snack station.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students have what they need to learn and thrive—both academically and emotionally. The next step for our class is to continue building these daily habits of care and community: keeping our space clean, making healthy choices, and showing gratitude. Thank you for helping create a classroom where every student can feel complete, focused, and ready to grow!","fullyFundedDate":1758843846036,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-minds-and-hearts-in-special-educ/9606825/","projectTitle":"Fueling Minds and Hearts in Special Education","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. McGee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2468814_orig.jpg?crop=816,816,x48,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1628638029384","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2468814"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_51970","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":396,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":74,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":51.9,"schoolId":51970,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Bloomer Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Bloomer Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/iowa/council-bluffs-community-school-district/bloomer-elementary-school/51970"}
