While this may seem like a minor change, it has significant implications for my intervention students because they are often pulled from these activities, and my portable classroom lacks a water source. Prior to the installation of the Brio Water Dispenser, we frequently lost valuable instructional time due to water retrieval. Now, students can conveniently hydrate themselves, allowing them to remain focused on the lessons I provide. I am sincerely grateful for this enhancement, as it has positively influenced the limited time I have with my students and will contribute to their ongoing progress.","fullyFundedDate":1730757187363,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-water-dispenser/8916699/","projectTitle":"Classroom Water Dispenser","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Thompson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9824541_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1730667398318","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9824541"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_92928","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":650,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":23,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":21,"percentWhite":68,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"23.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":71.0,"schoolId":92928,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Community Montessori School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Community Montessori School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/tennessee/jackson-madison-co-sch-dist/parkview-montessori-magnet-school/92928"}
