We are truly blown away by your love and generosity. My students were so excited and thankful to find out they were gifted so many supplies and even better during the Thanksgiving/ Christmas season. My school serves many of our surrounding low income communities and many of our families cannot afford to purchase supplies like scissors, pencils, glue sticks, etc. Your donations have been used daily by students. Whether it be a cut and paste, painting, or clean up, your donations have provided support to be able to successfully complete our work. We proudly showcase our work outside of the classroom so others can enjoy what we work on. It truly is exciting to see my students be so excited to display their work. My goal for my students is to create a memory folder at the end of the year with a collection of their work throughout the school year. This folder will be a surprise for their families and a keepsake of their child's work for the 25-25 school year.","fullyFundedDate":1762871013952,"projectUrl":"project/we-dont-make-mistakes-just-happy-littl/9459855/","projectTitle":"We Don’t Make Mistakes, Just Happy Little Accidents","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ochoa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10077624"},{"teacherId":10088262,"projectId":9489328,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for bringing so much joy to my students! Reading is crucial for academic success and the brand new books you donated to our classroom were the biggest blessing! These harder, more challenging books are PERFECT for my very gifted and talented scholars. It was truly so heartwarming opening the packages and going over the new books being added to our classroom library. My students' faces lit up with so much excitement and YOU are the reason they will meet their word count goal. I am currently typing this while watching my kiddos read Harry Potter, Goosebumps, Junie B. Jones, and Cat Kid. I love that because of your donation, my students will know the happiness reading a book can bring. In a world full of technology it brings me so much joy seeing these young scholars hold a book and love it so dearly. The glow when they're discovering the mystery to a book, and the smiles when they read a joke in a funny story are bringing so much happiness to my book worm heart. THANK YOU for being a blessing to my students. Not only did you support this school year, you are supporting my classroom every year from here on out. I cannot wait till the day I retire and I get to donate these wonderful books to another teacher, just like you did. May God bless you, you made a group of 65 students and myself immensly happy.","fullyFundedDate":1754775116741,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-library/9489328/","projectTitle":"Classroom Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. DelAngel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10088262_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753179036549","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10088262"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_129176","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":400,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":86,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":6,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":91,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 3","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":40.0,"schoolId":129176,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Idea Academy - Harlingen on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Idea Academy - Harlingen","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/idea-public-schools/idea-academy-harlingen/129176"}
