Students, faculty and visitors of our classroom enjoy the chair and couch daily. Throughout the day you will see children reading, writing and socializing on these items. The furniture brings a warmth into our classroom learning environment. Nothing is better than ending our learning days reading with a friend on our new furniture. \r\n\r\nThe furniture is enjoyed by adults as well. There are many days when a group of teachers with gather in my room after a hard day to debrief. It seems silly but it is comforting to sit in grown-up furniture to offer support and friendship. Having a place were adults can come together is critical in schools and because of your donations, my classroom is the place were we all gather. \r\n\r\nI teach my students to look for the helpers in their world and I am grateful for all of you. Again, thank you for helping to support my mission and project by providing a comfy environment where daily learning takes place.","fullyFundedDate":1757959307714,"projectUrl":"project/excellent-environments-equals-exceptiona/9407229/","projectTitle":"Excellent Environments Equals Exceptional Educational Experiences","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. McNeil","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10053842"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_80113","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":215,"numTeachers":30,"percentFrplEligible":44,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":92,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"7.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":72.3,"schoolId":80113,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Pittsfield Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Pittsfield Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-hampshire/school-administrative-unit-51/pittsfield-elementary-school/80113"}
