Graphic novels featuring a wide range of cultures, experiences, and identities have given our readers the chance to see themselves reflected in the stories while also gaining new perspectives on the lives of others. Students who were previously reluctant readers are now eagerly checking out books, sharing recommendations with peers, and discussing storylines in ways that extend beyond the classroom. Teachers have also incorporated these titles into lessons, using them as powerful tools to spark conversations about empathy, representation, and global awareness.\r\n\r\nThis grant has also helped us cultivate a more inclusive library environment where every student feels welcome. By diversifying our collection, we have reinforced the message that all voices and stories matter. The positive response from both students and teachers highlights how impactful this collection has been in fostering a love of reading, building community, and supporting literacy development across grade levels.","fullyFundedDate":1746787212633,"projectUrl":"project/great-graphic-novels/9225067/","projectTitle":"Great Graphic Novels","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Corey","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6797895_orig.png?crop=500,500,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1715782946307","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/melissacorey"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_76559","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":405,"numTeachers":27,"percentFrplEligible":75,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":67,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":9,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":77.8,"schoolId":76559,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Robidoux Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Robidoux Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/st-joseph-school-district/robidoux-middle-school/76559"}
