These materials have helped me tremendously. The wagon is absolutely essential for my day-to-day teaching. Our office is in one part of the Medical Center and the students' rooms are about a ten minute walk away. There are days when I see children back-to-back with no chance to return to the office. I put all of the materials I use with students in my wagon and cart it around with me all day. Sometimes it is overflowing, but it hasn't let me down yet:) I'm not sure how I'd be surviving without this amazing wagon!! \r\n\r\nSecondly thank you for the stand-up desk. After some students are discharged from the hospital, we continue to teach them online if they are not returning to school because of being immunocompromised. This stand-up desk allows me to teach my online students without sitting for an extended period of time.\r\n\r\nThank you again for making it much easier to travel to each student in the hospital and to continue teaching them online!","fullyFundedDate":1756285820727,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-on-wheels/9604099/","projectTitle":"Classroom on Wheels","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lewis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8665534_orig.jpg?crop=1222,1222,x0,y171&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1672321321267","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8665534"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1443","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":20,"numTeachers":18,"percentFrplEligible":67,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":34,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":32,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"1.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":81.8,"schoolId":1443,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about The Hospital School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"The Hospital School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/durham-public-schools/duke-univ-hospital-school/1443"}
