Your gift made an immediate impact on our school, and I want you to know just how much it means to us.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, students across our entire campus — from kindergarten through fifth grade — now have access to these new materials. The drums have already become a favorite in our music room, and they've allowed us to introduce a brand-new bucket drumming unit into our curriculum. It's been amazing watching students light up as they explore rhythm, coordination, teamwork, and creativity in a hands-on, energetic way.\r\n\r\nYour contribution didn't just provide instruments; it expanded what's possible in our program. You helped create an opportunity for every student, no matter their background or experience, to discover success and joy through music.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in our classroom and investing in our kids. We are truly grateful and appreciate you so much.","fullyFundedDate":1756938317360,"projectUrl":"project/bucket-drumming/9670368/","projectTitle":"Bucket Drumming","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lawson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6671741"},{"teacherId":10073406,"projectId":9452098,"letterContent":"I am filled with gratitude in response to your generous donation. As a first-year teacher, I feel both empowered and encouraged by not only your financial contribution, but also your choice to support a local school. Your kindness has made me feel truly welcomed in the Krum educational community. \r\n\r\nI wish you could have seen the joy that lit up my students' faces when they heard the news of your donation. They were thrilled to not only receive new tools and supplies, but also to learn that SONIC was involved. Being located right next door to our school, SONIC is something of a legend in the Dodd hallways! The students immediately began shouting out their favorite menu items and the employees they know, and they eagerly asked if they could compliment your menu in their thank-you letters. \r\n\r\nAs each package arrived, their excitement only grew. When the fidgets were delivered, the students raced to the basket to choose one. When the seat cushions arrived, every chair was soon filled with color and comfort. Finally, when the rocking chair made its way to us (after a few slight delays) the students themselves carried it down the hallway to our classroom, beaming with pride. It has since become the most coveted seat in the classroom! \r\n\r\nWhile these gifts do bring fun and joy, they have also provided my students with comfort, focus, and a stronger sense of community. Having the ability to choose tools that meets their individual needs has truly transformed our classroom environment and enhanced their learning experience.\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting me. Thank you for supporting the Krum Bobcats. And most importantly, thank you for supporting our future generations.","fullyFundedDate":1756938192540,"projectUrl":"project/wiggles-welcome-flexible-seating-and-fi/9452098/","projectTitle":"Wiggles Welcome: Flexible Seating and Fidgets for Focus","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Duebel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10073406_orig.jpg?crop=1914,1914,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752004295543","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10073406"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_10258","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":330,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":33,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":59,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":31,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.0,"schoolId":10258,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Blanche Dodd Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Blanche Dodd Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/krum-independent-school-district/blanche-dodd-intermediate-school/10258"}
