Most of my students have intellectual disabilities and autism, and these headphones have made a wonderful difference in our classroom. They allow students to engage in independent reading and learning activities without distractions, helping them focus and enjoy their lessons more fully.\r\n\r\nWith these headphones, students who are easily overwhelmed by noise can now participate more confidently and comfortably in classroom activities. They also provide a sense of independence and control over their learning, which is invaluable for building self-confidence and fostering a love of learning. The positive impact of your generosity is seen in the smiles, increased engagement, and excitement of our students every day.\r\n\r\nYour thoughtful support not only enhances their educational experience but also demonstrates the importance of inclusion and accessibility in learning environments. We are deeply grateful for your kindness and commitment to making a difference in the lives of students who benefit so greatly from such resources. Your gift truly empowers our students to reach their potential and enjoy the joy of learning in a meaningful way.","fullyFundedDate":1757094550727,"projectUrl":"project/listening-to-learn-empowering-students/9525407/","projectTitle":"Listening to Learn: Empowering Students with Disabilities","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dang","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9507571_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754080183469","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9507571"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_819","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":12,"numTeachers":39,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":9,"percentBlack":45,"percentWhite":12,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":".3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":72.4,"schoolId":819,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about PS 811K Connie Lekas School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"PS 811K Connie Lekas School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/ps-811k-connie-lekas-school/819"}
