And of course, a nice supply of sharpened pencils will always be useful in my English classroom. I never want students to feel anxious if they don't have the means to bring school supplies to class each day, so your donation has made that possible.","fullyFundedDate":1755734923761,"projectUrl":"project/replacing-broken-classroom-items/9387326/","projectTitle":"Replacing Broken Classroom Items","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Shields","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5623088_orig.png?crop=535,535,x17,y279&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1722383668135","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-shieldsenglish"},{"teacherId":5623088,"projectId":8999293,"letterContent":"I want to thank you for your generous donation to my classroom.
