The new sports equipment you provided has transformed our daily activities. My students used the new basketballs, soccer goals, baseball bats, and baseball gloves not only for recreation, but also for team-building and learning sportsmanship. One of our favorite moments was during our \"Mini Olympics\" week—students eagerly organized friendly competitions, cheering each other on and celebrating every victory together. It was wonderful to see them develop confidence, cooperation, and pride in their accomplishments.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the new equipment, their excitement was contagious. They couldn't wait to try everything out! For many, this was their first opportunity to play with high-quality sports gear, and their faces lit up with joy and curiosity. What began as simple play quickly turned into lessons about teamwork, perseverance, and leadership.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we're continuing to build on the skills and enthusiasm that your donation sparked. Our next goal is to create a student-led fitness challenge where they'll design their own games and track progress over the summer. Because of your generosity, our students are not only more active—they're more motivated, confident, and connected as a community.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in their growth and giving them a summer to remember!","fullyFundedDate":1747880545007,"projectUrl":"project/a-summer-sports-dream/9368624/","projectTitle":"A Summer Sports Dream","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hurd","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2855717_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1662779968560","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-nicole-hurd"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_73068","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":512,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":96,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"16.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.1,"schoolId":73068,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Noble Elementary Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Noble Elementary Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/michigan/detroit-public-schools-community-district/noble-elementary-school/73068"}
