Because of your kindness, we now have essential items like snacks, toothbrushes, wet wipes, tissues, nap mats, blankets, and other basic care supplies to support our preschoolers both at school and at home. These resources have made a meaningful difference in our daily routines. One special moment that stood out was being able to quietly provide a child with what they needed—whether it was a snack to ease hunger or comfort items for rest time—helping them feel safe, cared for, and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the new materials, their reactions were filled with excitement and comfort. For many, these items brought a sense of security and belonging. Simple things like having their own blanket or being able to take home care items helped build confidence and independence. It has also allowed us to support families in a practical and meaningful way, ensuring that every child has access to basic needs.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, we will continue using these resources to support our students' well-being so they can fully engage in learning. Our next steps include reinforcing self-care routines, building independence, and creating a classroom environment where every child feels supported and valued. Your generosity has truly made a lasting impact, and we are so grateful for your support.\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt thanks,","fullyFundedDate":1769316098780,"projectUrl":"project/ready-to-learn-meeting-basic-needs-for/10053190/","projectTitle":"Ready to Learn: Meeting Basic Needs for Our Youngest Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Johnson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3207863_orig.jpg?crop=1503,1503,x0,y336&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1565008058392","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/a-johnsonrcs"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_21083","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":428,"numTeachers":43,"percentFrplEligible":59,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":89,"percentIndigenous":3,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"10.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":75.0,"schoolId":21083,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Gail N Chapman Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Gail N Chapman Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/randolph-central-school-district/gail-n-chapman-elementary-school/21083"}
