Because of you, my classroom library has become a place of excitement, curiosity, and joy.\r\n\r\nMany of my students struggle to see themselves as readers. The graphic novels you provided immediately changed that. From the moment the books arrived, students were eager to read—asking to take them home, recommending titles to one another, and proudly sharing their favorite characters and scenes. Even students who are often reluctant readers are now fully engaged, reading for longer periods of time and with greater confidence.\r\n\r\nThese graphic novels have been especially impactful for my diverse learners. The visual storytelling supports comprehension, builds vocabulary, and helps students make deeper connections to the text. I've seen students who once avoided reading now participating in discussions, analyzing plot and character development, and discovering that reading can be enjoyable and empowering.\r\n\r\nBecause of your kindness, my students now have access to books that reflect their interests and meet them where they are as readers. You didn't just donate books—you helped foster a love of reading and gave my students the confidence to see themselves as successful learners.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students and for making such a meaningful difference in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1760923816399,"projectUrl":"project/making-reading-relevant-for-reluctant-re/9718985/","projectTitle":"Making Reading Relevant for Reluctant Readers Through Graphic Novels","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Argentieri","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5350900_orig.jpg?crop=1594,1594,x0,y180&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1758032964560","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5350900"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_63950","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":566,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":45,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":39,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"5 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"13.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":63950,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Webster Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Webster Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/webster-school-district/webster-middle-school/63950"}
