Instead of spending valuable instructional time searching for lost assignments or misplaced supplies, my students can now transition between subjects with ease. This shift has not only cleared the physical clutter but has also reduced the mental stress that comes with a chaotic workspace. Seeing my scholars take pride in their new organizational systems has been one of the most rewarding moments of the school year.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, these resources will serve as the foundation for our upcoming long-term research projects. By having a designated home for their notes and drafts, my students are learning essential executive functioning skills that will serve them well beyond this grade level. Your generosity has truly empowered them to take ownership of their learning.\r\n\r\nWith gratitude,\r\n\r\nMs. Maxwell","fullyFundedDate":1764637450011,"projectUrl":"project/organization-success/9553161/","projectTitle":"Organization = Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Maxwell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8668364_orig.jpg?crop=2184,2184,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1664152745322","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8668364"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_64816","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":464,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":60,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":27,"percentWhite":10,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":54,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"3 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":89.2,"schoolId":64816,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Strathmore Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Strathmore Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maryland/montgomery-county-public-schools/strathmore-elementary-school/64816"}
