This is my second year teaching at this school. When I started last year, the room was barren. There was barely anything, and what was there was falling apart. Our old cubby system (left by the old teacher) was just a series of metal boxes stacked together. I had multiple students complain that the room was ugly and didn't \"look\" or \"feel\" like an art room. While I did my best to hang up posters and keep the room clean, it was at it's core, disorganized. There was no room to store supplies, so the students just weren't exposed that that big of a variety of materials. The materials that I was keeping in the room were strewn in cardboard boxes around the room as each grade worked on a different unit. It was hard to get the little kids to clean up because nothing had a place to go. By the time 4th period came around, it looked like a twister just came through, and the students had to do class in this environment. I spent almost my entire prep period just cleaning from the day.\r\nThis year, I can already see the improvement. My elementary schoolers can put things away in the cubbies by themselves. The map, which I didn't know if any of them were going to use, has become a favorite. I have one student who uses it to self-regulate. He'll look at the map, try to find countries we've learned about and imagine going there. Right now, it's November, and Thanksgiving is a very big deal in my school. It's the season of gratitude, and the students always know that when we get nice things, it did not come from me, but from the community, whether that be the school budget, donors who drop things off, overflow supplies from other schools, or the donors choose.","fullyFundedDate":1786385541842,"projectUrl":"project/organized-room-organized-mind/10301475/","projectTitle":"Organized Room; Organized Mind","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lau","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10516626"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_105600","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":38,"numTeachers":11,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":13,"percentWhite":28,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":55,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":"3.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.8,"schoolId":105600,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Devens School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Devens School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/everett-public-schools/devens-school/105600"}
