Your gift has made such an impact in creating an engaging, exciting learning environment for my students. My students use the items that were donated daily. They love entering a classroom where they feel comfortable and excited to learn.\r\n My students love my entire classroom, but they definitely enjoy the reading corner the most. The beanbag chairs and new rug are such an inviting space for them to choose a new book and read. I love seeing my students reading for enjoyment and giving them a place to do that is wonderful. I could not have provided such a warm, welcoming space without your generous donation.\r\n My classroom also provides a place for all students to learn. Having items such as the bouncy bands in my classroom helps me provide a place where all students can learn in an environment that they are comfortable in. This helps some of my students who need to have extra movement breaks be able to move without having to miss class for a break or distracting their classmates.\r\n I am so grateful for your generosity! My students can now learn in a welcoming environment that they look forward to visiting daily and that is because of people like you who are willing to help! Thank you so much for your kindness!","fullyFundedDate":1747068987737,"projectUrl":"project/help-me-create-an-inviting-classroom-for/9271411/","projectTitle":"Help Me Create An Inviting Classroom For My Fourth Graders!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Norman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2135425_orig.png?crop=398,398,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1603758454262","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2135425"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_58729","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":624,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":70,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":75,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"17.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":70.5,"schoolId":58729,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Western Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Western Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/kentucky/scott-county-schools/western-elementary-school/58729"}
