I know my students are very grateful as well. The students also loved learning a new skill and catching on to it even with the struggles. For most of them, they had never sewed before. Some were scared at first but they persevered and were able to finish their teddy bears. They are so proud and happy with their teddy bears that I know they will cherish for a long time.","fullyFundedDate":1757505337785,"projectUrl":"project/my-teddy-bear/9522141/","projectTitle":"My Teddy Bear","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Griffith","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10104450_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753988457444","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/miss-griffith"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_92643","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":652,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":9,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":72,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":75.3,"schoolId":92643,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Apison Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Apison Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/tennessee/hamilton-county-schools/apison-elementary-school/92643"}
