With so many moving parts—students walking to different locations, cars lining up, and staff directing traffic—it is essential that our procedures are clear, consistent, and easy for children to follow.\r\n\r\nThe addition of a Push Cart Dolly, reflective vests, Stop/Slow signs, and field marker cones will significantly strengthen the safety and efficiency of our dismissal process. Reflective vests will help students easily identify staff members who can assist them. Coordinated colored cones will clearly mark student waiting areas and traffic zones, helping children navigate to their dismissal spots with confidence. The Push Cart Dolly will allow us to move cones in and out of the building quickly and safely each day, ensuring they remain in good condition. Stop/Slow signs will help staff guide vehicle flow with clarity, reducing confusion and lowering the risk of accidents.\r\n\r\nWith these tools, our staff can create a safer, more organized dismissal environment—one that supports smooth routines, reduces chaos, and keeps student safety at the forefront. Your donation made a meaningful difference in helping every child end their school day safely and securely.","fullyFundedDate":1746625911753,"projectUrl":"project/lights-cones-action-keeping-our-stude/9213601/","projectTitle":"Lights, Cones, Action!

When I moved to this new school, the classroom had a lot of clutter, which made the space feel overwhelming for young learners. These new resources have helped transform the room into a place where students can feel comfortable, calm, and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nA clean and organized classroom supports better focus and engagement, and the battery-powered vacuum has made it easy to maintain a tidy environment throughout the day. Spills and messes can be addressed quickly, allowing students to stay in a safe and distraction-free space that encourages meaningful participation.\r\n\r\nThe addition of storage bins has been especially helpful. Being able to sort materials, reduce clutter, and easily locate items for lessons has made instruction smoother and more intentional. Clear bins allow me to quickly access the best tools for each concept, helping my students stay engaged and making the classroom feel more structured, inviting, and effective for learning.","fullyFundedDate":1669164056941,"projectUrl":"project/staying-clean-having-fun/6652745/","projectTitle":"Staying Clean, Having Fun","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wright","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3913825_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y46&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1598359695992","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/amber-wright"},{"teacherId":4939307,"projectId":9461356,"letterContent":"My students have been loving these materials!
