We are deeply grateful for your generosity and thoughtfulness in supporting our students in such a meaningful and practical way.\r\n\r\nWith winter being especially cold this year, the availability of warm pants, shirts, and undergarments has made an immediate and noticeable difference in our ability to care for students throughout the school day. When a child experiences an accident, spill, or unexpected need for a change of clothes, having clean, season-appropriate clothing readily available allows us to respond quickly, compassionately, and discreetly. These items help ensure that students feel comfortable, warm, and supported during what can often be an embarrassing or vulnerable moment.\r\n\r\nThe health office is often a place where students come not only for medical needs, but also for reassurance, comfort, and care. Having access to appropriate clothing means we can help students regain a sense of normalcy and dignity, allowing them to return to class feeling confident and ready to learn. Without these resources, a child may otherwise need to wait for a parent or guardian to arrive, potentially missing valuable instructional time and feeling added stress. Your donations help eliminate that barrier and allow students to get back to their day as smoothly as possible.\r\n\r\nThese items are also especially important for students and families who may face financial challenges. For some families, replacing clothing during the winter months can be difficult, and having access to clean, warm clothing at school can make a significant difference. Your generosity ensures that every child—regardless of circumstance—has what they need to feel safe, cared for, and included while at school.\r\n\r\nEach donated item represents more than just clothing; it represents kindness, compassion, and a shared commitment to the well-being of our students. Your support helps us create a school environment where students know they are cared for, understood, and supported in both big and small moments throughout the day.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of the health office staff and the students we serve, thank you again for your generosity and continued support. Your kindness has a direct and lasting impact on our school community, and we are truly grateful for your partnership in helping us care for our students with dignity, warmth, and compassion.","fullyFundedDate":1769386543609,"projectUrl":"project/helping-hands-for-student-health-comfor/10055718/","projectTitle":"Helping Hands for Student Health- Comfort Through Community","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Roecker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10417308"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_22292","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":456,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":20,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":64,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 4","studentTeacherRatio":"14.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":77.8,"schoolId":22292,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Park Ave Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Park Ave Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/warwick-valley-central-school-district/park-ave-elementary-school/22292"}
