Every day, our students show up with energy, creativity, and a strong desire to learn—despite the many challenges they may face outside of school. They are kind, curious, and growing into thoughtful young people.\r\nMiddle school is a time of big changes, and many of our students don't have access to basic hygiene products. Thanks to your support, we've been able to provide essentials like deodorant, pads, toothpaste, and wash cloths—items that help them feel clean, confident, and cared for.\r\nWhen the students first saw the materials, their reactions were full of gratitude and excitement. Some smiled shyly, others expressed genuine relief, and many simply said \"thank you\" with heartfelt sincerity. These resources are now being used daily—not just as hygiene support, but as tools for building self-esteem and dignity.\r\nStudents have shared how having access to these items makes them feel more comfortable and confident throughout the school day. They're more focused in class, more willing to participate, and more engaged in their learning. Your gift has helped create a more inclusive and supportive environment where every student feels seen and valued.\r\nThank you for believing in our students and for helping them thrive—inside and outside the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1755725782838,"projectUrl":"project/the-confident-closet/9428122/","projectTitle":"The Confident Closet","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Del Valle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10061430_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1761418605864","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10061430"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_18140","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":555,"numTeachers":53,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":94,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":70.3,"schoolId":18140,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Fonville Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Fonville Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/houston-independent-school-district/fonville-middle-school/18140"}
