Because of you, our classroom received essential resources including a laptop, headphones, test prep materials, grammar workbooks, and other ELA workbooks. While many donors use technology at home, its role in schools can look quite different. The laptop you provided allows me to effectively plan engaging lessons, analyze student data, and complete grading more efficiently, which directly benefits students by allowing me to provide timely feedback and targeted instruction. The headphones and instructional materials support focused, meaningful learning during independent and small-group work.\r\n\r\nThe new materials have been incredibly exciting and motivating for my students. They especially enjoy using the headphones, which help them concentrate and feel more independent during test prep and literacy activities. The grammar and ELA workbooks give students hands-on opportunities to strengthen essential reading and writing skills, while the test prep materials help them feel more confident and prepared for assessments. Students are eager to use these resources because they make learning feel structured, supportive, and purposeful.\r\n\r\nSeveral students who previously struggled with focus or confidence have especially benefited from these new tools. Some students are more engaged when working independently with headphones, while others have shown noticeable growth through consistent practice in the workbooks. Seeing students gain confidence, stay focused, and take pride in their progress has been incredibly rewarding. Your generosity has made a meaningful impact on both my teaching and my students' learning, and I am truly grateful for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1766673418387,"projectUrl":"project/equipping-our-classroom-for-success/9948967/","projectTitle":"Equipping Our Classroom for Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. O'Kelley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9600043_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1765072384031","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9600043"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_86836","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":316,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":83,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":50,"percentIndigenous":29,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"11.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":79.2,"schoolId":86836,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Checotah Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Checotah Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oklahoma/checotah-school-district-1-19/checotah-middle-school/86836"}
