Teaching in a Title I school, I see firsthand how important it is for children to have their basic needs met before they can focus on learning. Having snacks readily available in our classroom has helped ensure that students have something to eat when hunger strikes during the school day. Instead of worrying about an empty stomach, they can focus their energy on learning, participating, and doing their best.\r\n\r\nThese snacks have been especially helpful during our busy school days, when students are working hard during lessons, completing assignments, and participating in small-group instruction. Having something available to help them get through the day has brought comfort and excitement to our classroom. Sometimes, something as simple as a snack can turn a difficult moment into a much better one.\r\n\r\nTo everyone who contributed to our DonorsChoose project, thank you from the bottom of my heart! Your generosity has provided so much more than snacks. You have shown my students that people outside our classroom care about their happiness, well-being, and success. Your kindness has truly made a difference, and we are incredibly grateful for your support!","fullyFundedDate":1789080253513,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-for-students/10436534/","projectTitle":"Snacks for Students","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Reed","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7351470_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1695331242002","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7351470"},{"teacherId":7351470,"projectId":9941817,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity and for supporting my students! The resources from this project are already making a positive difference in our classroom. We are using the new materials to help students stay organized, work more independently, and take greater responsibility for their learning. My students were incredibly excited when they first saw everything. Their smiles and enthusiasm reminded me just how meaningful it is for students to know that others believe in them and want to see them succeed.\r\n\r\nAs we continue through the school year, these resources will be used during our daily lessons, independent work, and classroom activities. My students will continue building their academic skills while also developing confidence, responsibility, and independence. These materials give us additional tools to create an engaging and supportive learning environment where every student has an opportunity to grow.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in my students and our classroom.

Supplies such as flexible seating, hands-on learning materials, updated books, and basic necessities allow students to stay focused, engaged, and confident in their work. When students have access to high-quality resources, they are able to participate more actively, collaborate with peers, and take ownership of their learning. These materials are not \"extras\" — they are tools that support academic growth, creativity, and a positive classroom environment where every child feels valued and prepared to succeed.\r\n\r\nYour generosity also helps remove barriers so that all students have equal opportunities to thrive. Many families are balancing financial challenges, and classroom donations ensure that no child goes without essential supplies or enriching experiences. Contributions make it possible to provide materials for hands-on projects, small-group instruction, and meaningful celebrations of learning that build confidence and community. Every donation, no matter the size, creates a ripple effect — strengthening our classroom, supporting student achievement, and reminding children that their community believes in them.","fullyFundedDate":1761155975711,"projectUrl":"project/supples-needed/9644394/","projectTitle":"Supples Needed","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Reed","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7351470_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1695331242002","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7351470"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_34999","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":631,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":54,"percentWhite":11,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"15.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":60.2,"schoolId":34999,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Westside Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Westside Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/roanoke-city-public-schools/westside-elementary-school/34999"}
