The rain jackets are a blessing since our students walk to and from school. The school uniforms are great too because we actually keep the hoodies in the classroom for when it is cold. The snacks were the best. The students enjoy the break in the day and stay focused longer. It is nice to see that every student can have a snack not just the students who can afford one! The cereal was such a great hit for the students that get to school late. Instead of skipping a meal they can have it in the classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1746712109151,"projectUrl":"project/full-bellys-warm-and-cozy-learners-part/9317115/","projectTitle":"Full Bellys, Warm and Cozy Learners Part 2!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Maisto","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4180823_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1578113738460","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4180823"},{"teacherId":4180823,"projectId":9144489,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the snacks. The students enjoyed them. It is nice seeing everyone getting a snack not just the students who can afford the snacks. It is heartbreaking watching some students eating while others don't eat. They ask each other for a snack. This has been a lifesaver. We had enough snacks and cereal to send home in goodie bags for the summer break. The students are very grateful. The gloves will come in handy when it starts to get cold again in the Fall and all our students walk. I was actually able to still give them out in April because we still had cold mornings.","fullyFundedDate":1742823855017,"projectUrl":"project/full-bellies-warm-and-cozy-learners/9144489/","projectTitle":"Full Bellies, Warm and Cozy Learners!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Maisto","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4180823_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1578113738460","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4180823"},{"teacherId":5256340,"projectId":8677777,"letterContent":"Our care cart has been available to all of our students grades K-5 for several weeks.

Hygiene products have been great as the weather is warmer and student activity outside has increased. Girls are thankful for famine products that are only has steps away from the restroom. \r\n Teachers are even finding it helpful when their own issue arise that they were not prepared for or they have run out of products they use daily. Many staff members have also begun donating items that they realize students ask for that were not initially ordered.\r\n I feel the cart will continue to expand and provide additional items our students need to be successful during their school day and even at home.

When they first saw the boxes arrive to our room, their faces lit up with excitement, and it sparked some wonderful comments.\r\n\r\n Consuming nutritious snacks can enhance student performance by keeping blood sugar levels steady. This stability supports increased energy, focus, and concentration, enabling our students to participate more effectively in learning activities and remember information throughout the day. By reducing distractions caused by hunger, healthy snacks can maximize cognitive function and positively impact overall academic achievement.\r\n\r\nThank you for being a vital part of our learning journey!","fullyFundedDate":1737749857035,"projectUrl":"project/helping-students-focus-on-learning/9046562/","projectTitle":"Helping Students Focus On Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Martinez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8140201_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1737648051498","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8140201"},{"teacherId":3070488,"projectId":9043371,"letterContent":"I would like to take the time to thank all of you for your generosity.
