Because of your generosity, our classroom now includes accessible, high-interest books that support diverse reading needs—such as dyslexia-friendly fonts, engaging topics, and formats that help students read with greater confidence and success.\r\n\r\nFor many of my students, reading has often felt frustrating or discouraging. This new library has changed that. Students are excited to choose books they can read and want to read. They are spending more time reading independently, sharing recommendations with peers, and beginning to see themselves as capable readers.\r\n\r\nYour support has done more than provide books—it has given my students dignity, confidence, and the message that their learning differences are valued and supported. You have helped create a safe, empowering space where students with dyslexia can grow, learn, and develop a love of reading at their own pace. Thank you for making such a meaningful impact on their lives.","fullyFundedDate":1753069275747,"projectUrl":"project/for-the-love-of-reading/9474272/","projectTitle":"For the Love of Reading!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Spears","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3412276_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1452565474260","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/kspears"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_16370","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1206,"numTeachers":102,"percentFrplEligible":92,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":90,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"11.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":62.8,"schoolId":16370,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about W.E.
