The excitement on my students' faces as the packages arrived was truly heartwarming. Our classroom snack supply often runs low, and I am always mindful of how frequently I ask families to contribute—especially as the school year progresses. Your support ensures that my students have snacks they enjoy, and it allows me to discreetly provide additional items to those from low‑income households who may need something to take home.\r\n\r\nDuring our long upstate New York winters, we spend many months indoors. While my students enjoy technology, I strive to offer activities that encourage creativity, imagination, and hands‑on play. The toys you provided make this possible, and the joy and engagement they bring to the classroom are remarkable.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your kindness and for supporting my 2nd grade classroom. Your contribution has brought tremendous happiness to 20 children and has made a meaningful difference in our daily learning environment.","fullyFundedDate":1778040198053,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-and-screen-free-fun/10162532/","projectTitle":"Snacks and Screen Free Fun","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Quinlan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10041005_orig.jpg?crop=465,465,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747841956693","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10041005"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_22489","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":507,"numTeachers":54,"percentFrplEligible":83,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":97,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":0,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"9.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":91.4,"schoolId":22489,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Canisteo - Greenwood Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Canisteo - Greenwood Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/canisteo-greenwood-central-school-district/canisteo-elementary-school/22489"}
