Student enthusiasm has been growing at the same time that funding has been drastically reduced, and I was worried last year that I would not be able to support the many OBOB teams that I knew we would have this year. Without your donation, I don't think we would have been able to participate at all. Our students deserve the excitement of new, high quality and high interest books, and participation in reading programs like OBOB will help to form lifelong lovers of reading and literacy.\r\n\r\nFrom all of us at Ockley Green, thank you!","fullyFundedDate":1744225105355,"projectUrl":"project/oregon-battle-of-the-books-set-for-title/9194084/","projectTitle":"Oregon Battle of the Books Set for Title 1 School","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Peacock","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5114297"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_88229","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":409,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":16,"percentWhite":43,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":21,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":83.9,"schoolId":88229,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Ockley Green Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Ockley Green Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oregon/portland-public-schools/ockley-green-school/88229"}
