I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation of fine motor supplies, games, and adaptive tools that you provided me. As a school-based occupational therapist, I have the privilege of supporting students in developing the skills they need to thrive both in and out of the classroom—and your gift is already making a meaningful difference. \r\n\r\nThe materials you provided have quickly become essential tools in my therapy sessions. The fine motor supplies are helping students strengthen their hand muscles and improve their handwriting, scissor use, and other academic-related tasks. The adaptive tools are empowering my students with increased physical challenges to participate more independently in classroom activities. And the games have been a wonderful addition—not only do they motivate and engage students, but they also help build critical skills like turn-taking, attention, and problem-solving in a fun way! \r\n\r\nPerhaps the most powerful part of your gift is the sense of joy it brings to my students. These tools allow me to tailor interventions to each child's needs, helping them experience success in ways that are both meaningful and empowering. It's truly inspiring to witness the progress they're making! \r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the work we do and for investing in the success of our students. Your generosity is not only appreciated—it's creating real, lasting impact in their lives! \r\n\r\nWith gratitude, \r\nSydney Hopkins\r\nSchool-Based Occupational Therapist","fullyFundedDate":1745229800166,"projectUrl":"project/play-all-day-new-ot-in-need-of-therapy/9091220/","projectTitle":"Play All Day: New OT in Need of Therapy Tools!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sydney","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9913503_orig.jpg?crop=427,427,x0,y48&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1738534778645","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9913503"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_34387","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":241,"numTeachers":22,"percentFrplEligible":93,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":82,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":6,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 3","studentTeacherRatio":"11.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":60.3,"schoolId":34387,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Patrick Springs Primary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Patrick Springs Primary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/patrick-county-public-school-district/patrick-springs-primary-school/34387"}
