Your contribution has made a tremendous difference in our classroom, and I am incredibly grateful for your kindness and dedication to education.\r\nThanks to your generosity, we now have much-needed binders and art supplies that will greatly enhance our learning environment. The binders will help students stay organized, keep their work neatly stored, and easily access materials for their lessons. Organization is a key skill that will benefit them not only in school but throughout their lives, and your support helps us instill these important habits.\r\nThe art supplies, including paints, markers, paper, and other materials, open up a world of creativity and self-expression for our students. Art is a powerful tool for learning—encouraging imagination, problem-solving, and emotional development. With these supplies, students can explore new ideas, work on projects that reflect their interests, and build confidence in their abilities. It also creates a more engaging and inspiring classroom environment where students feel valued and motivated to learn.\r\nYour support goes beyond just providing materials; it demonstrates that people care about education and believe in the potential of every student. Many of our students face challenges outside the classroom, and having access to these resources gives them a sense of stability and encouragement. It shows them that their education matters and that they are supported by a caring community.\r\nOur students are eager to learn and grow, and with these supplies, I am confident they will have more opportunities to succeed academically and creatively. I look forward to seeing their bright ideas come to life through art projects and organized notebooks. These tools will also help us implement more interactive and hands-on activities, making learning more meaningful and fun.","fullyFundedDate":1746497850145,"projectUrl":"project/mrs-dores/9216712/","projectTitle":"Mrs. Dore’s","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Dore","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9531372"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_65555","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":142,"numTeachers":14,"percentFrplEligible":77,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":93,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":64.4,"schoolId":65555,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Helen S Dunn School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Helen S Dunn School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maine/greenbush-school-department/helen-s-dunn-elementary-school/65555"}
