Because of your kindness, my students now have access to much-needed supplies that have made a meaningful difference in our daily learning environment.\r\n\r\nThe new pencil sharpener has been a wonderful addition to our classroom. Students are able to quickly and independently sharpen their pencils, which helps minimize interruptions and keeps our focus on learning. The whiteboards and markers have been especially helpful during math lessons. Students love using them to practice skills, show their thinking, and actively participate in class. These tools have increased engagement and allowed me to check for understanding in real time.\r\n\r\nThe games for indoor recess have also been a huge success. On days when we cannot go outside, students now have positive, structured activities that encourage cooperation, problem-solving, and social interaction. This has helped create a calmer, more enjoyable classroom environment and supports students' social-emotional growth.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students feel supported, motivated, and excited to learn. Thank you for believing in our classroom and for making a lasting impact on our students' school experience. We are TRULY grateful for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1757541152485,"projectUrl":"project/rainy-days-bright-minds-indoor-fun-and/9645891/","projectTitle":"Rainy Days, Bright Minds: Indoor Fun and Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Scopa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10220615"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_21497","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":465,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":48,"percentWhite":15,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":21,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"12.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":74.5,"schoolId":21497,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Abelard Reynolds School 42 on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Abelard Reynolds School 42","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/rochester-city-school-district/abelard-reynolds-school-42/21497"}
