These books are already making a meaningful difference, helping them grow as readers while also allowing them to see themselves and their language reflected in what they read.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the books, you provided book bins to help us stay organized. While they were originally intended to store our new classroom library, they became even more impactful than we expected. My students were left with no individual student desks or space to keep their supplies and textbooks, so these bins have given them a much-needed way to stay organized and take ownership of their learning materials instead. When the bins first came in, they got super excited knowing they now had somewhere to organize their belongings; they love them.\r\n\r\nYour donation has not only enriched our classroom academically, but it has also created a more structured and supportive learning environment for my students. We are incredibly grateful for your generosity and belief in our classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you for making a difference in our students' lives.","fullyFundedDate":1764718903424,"projectUrl":"project/books-theyll-love-stories-theyll-reme/9531005/","projectTitle":"Books They’ll Love, Stories They’ll Remember","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Paz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9599837_orig.jpg?crop=720,720,x0,y79&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721423148783","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9599837"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_98243","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":631,"numTeachers":38,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":100,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"16.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":56.3,"schoolId":98243,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Evangelina Garza Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Evangelina Garza Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/la-joya-independent-school-district/evangelina-garza-elementary-school/98243"}
