Many of my students come into class carrying stress from outside of school, and having consistent access to snacks, basic supplies, and engaging classroom materials has helped create a space where they feel safe, supported, and ready to learn. Instead of worrying about being hungry or not having what they need, students are able to focus on their assignments, discussions, and personal growth.\r\n\r\nOne moment that truly stood out happened during a small group reading and writing activity. Students were working together to analyze themes in a text and create personal reflections connecting the story to their own lives. Normally, some students struggle to stay engaged for long periods of time, especially during afternoon classes, but with access to snacks and a comfortable, prepared classroom environment, they remained focused, participated in meaningful conversations, and completed work they were proud of. Several students even stayed after class to continue discussing the lesson and ask questions, which was a huge accomplishment for them.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has made a lasting impact on our classroom, and because of your support, my students are not only growing academically, but also learning that their community believes in them and their success.","fullyFundedDate":1746466220599,"projectUrl":"project/full-shelves-and-full-bellies-a-year-of/9228946/","projectTitle":"Full Shelves and Full Bellies: A Year of Growth","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Paulson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6984898_orig.jpg?crop=480,480,x0,y70&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746046357316","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6984898"},{"teacherId":10073770,"projectId":9452854,"letterContent":"First let me apologize for the tardiness of this thank you.

So far the students are enjoying the novels you so generously donated to my class!\r\n\r\nThis novel helps students to connect with the material in the novel because they have experienced some of the events themselves or have seen friends and/ or family members that reflect the characters from the story!

They come with a variety of interests and talents, and it has been my honor to harness their creativity and show them how to create things with your help and generous donation.\r\nWith your help, we have been able to embark on two major projects. First, students were able to create their own spirit gear. Many of the kids who are in the makers club come from families who don't have the resources to purchase a school shirt. One of the first things I was able to teach them was how to create a file that they could then use on our Cricut machine and our new heat press (THANK YOU) to create t-shirts. The exclamations of joy when they held up their creations made a hard day at work turn into one of the best ones of the week. \r\nThe next project that we worked on was creating stickers. I have three incredibly talented artists who have never thought their work was good enough to pursue an art career. Our school has a quarterly Art Mart, and the students all learned to create a sticker in Canva (for those of us who are crafty, not artsy) or to digitize their own artwork. \r\nThe squealing that ensued from my students, including a senior football player, when they pulled the stickers off the Cricut and held them in their hands was the best sound of the month. \r\nThank you.","fullyFundedDate":1746926494482,"projectUrl":"project/makers-gotta-make/9269721/","projectTitle":"Makers Gotta Make","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Flores","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6304572_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1551418545499","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6304572"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_82469","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1598,"numTeachers":101,"percentFrplEligible":52,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":20,"percentIndigenous":6,"percentLatinx":63,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.4,"schoolId":82469,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cibola High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cibola High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-mexico/albuquerque-public-schools/cibola-high-school/82469"}
