Your gift has already made a meaningful impact in ways that are both practical and deeply personal.\r\n\r\nFor my autistic students, technology like this isn't just a tool — it's a bridge to communication, learning, and self-expression. The iPad has opened up new possibilities for them to engage with their education in ways that are comfortable, supportive, and tailored to their unique needs. Whether it's using visual schedules to ease transitions, communication apps to express themselves more clearly, or interactive learning games that build key academic skills, the iPad is helping them grow with confidence and joy.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular has shown incredible progress since we introduced the device. He used to become easily overwhelmed during group activities, but now he uses the iPad to participate in class routines and even share his thoughts with his peers. Moments like these are priceless—and they're possible because of your kindness.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in our students and for helping us create a more inclusive and empowering learning environment. Your generosity truly makes a difference.","fullyFundedDate":1758290857119,"projectUrl":"project/every-child-deserves-a-voice/9604393/","projectTitle":"Every Child Deserves a Voice","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wall","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9517108_orig.jpg?crop=360,360,x0,y60&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725678995803","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9517108"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_64781","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":617,"numTeachers":45,"percentFrplEligible":47,"percentAsian":9,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":38,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":66.7,"schoolId":64781,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Maryvale Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Maryvale Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maryland/montgomery-county-public-schools/maryvale-elementary-school/64781"}
