This is not an easy task, and I certainly do not take it lightly; it is my honor and privilege to do this. Lately, and I am sure I am not alone, it feels like I am in competition with the instant availability of portable technology. I am all for technology, and I appreciate the availability of art and culture, and the ability for students to have that at the ready. But, I also know the value in holding a book, and being engaged with the printed page, and your donation has shown me that you value this as well.\r\nAdditionally, I would like to add that my students loved this book. The final for the novel was a Socratic Seminar, which was entirely student driven. They created the questions, the debate, the conversations, and it was riveting. \r\nThank you again for positively contributing to my students.","fullyFundedDate":1734380237297,"projectUrl":"project/station-eleven-reboot/9002131/","projectTitle":"Station Eleven Reboot","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mensing","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8655024"},{"teacherId":8655024,"projectId":8815710,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredibly generous contribution which funded the purchase of a class set of Station Eleven novels by Emily St. John Mandel for my fabulous AP Literature and Composition class at Redmond High School in Oregon.

And with your contribution, I am able to present them with a new and relatable work of literature that they can enjoy. I am looking forward to hearing their discussions, and reading their insights.\r\n How wonderful that, as a school, we now have these editions to share with future generations of inquisitive young readers!
