Having pencils readily available allows them to participate in classroom activities, complete their assignments, and focus more on their learning without worrying about not having something as simple as a pencil.\r\n\r\nThe snacks have also made a positive difference in our classroom. They serve as a little motivation for students to participate, engage in learning activities, and do their best. Sometimes, a small snack and a simple act of kindness can make a student feel cared for and encouraged to keep trying.\r\n\r\nAs a teacher, I believe that students learn best when they feel supported and when their basic needs are considered. Your generosity has helped me provide not only essential classroom supplies but also a more encouraging and welcoming learning environment.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students and for helping me make our classroom a place where they can learn, participate, and succeed. Your support reminds us that even small acts of generosity can have a lasting impact on a child's education.\r\n\r\nI am truly grateful for your kindness and for being part of our students' journey toward success.\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt gratitude,","fullyFundedDate":1787584872003,"projectUrl":"project/fueled-and-equipped-essential-supplies/10440163/","projectTitle":"Fueled and Equipped: Essential Supplies and Snacks for Students’ Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ones","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10405100_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1768944182989","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10405100"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1350","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":866,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":52,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":19,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":11,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"20.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":41.8,"schoolId":1350,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Douglas Byrd Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Douglas Byrd Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/cumberland-county-schools/douglas-byrd-middle-school/1350"}
