Because of your support, our third‑grade reading corner has become a bright and inviting space where students feel comfortable, valued, and eager to explore new stories. The addition of a wide range of books—representing many cultures, languages, and experiences—has already enriched our literacy time and expanded the perspectives available to my students.\r\nThe cozy space you helped create has quickly become a favorite spot in our classroom. My third graders use the bench, cushions, and carpet during independent reading, partner activities, and reflection time. These resources have also supported our current storytelling and identity‑focused lessons, giving students strong models for thinking about voice, belonging, and community as they develop their own writing.\r\nYour generosity has made a lasting impact. You didn't just provide materials—you created a sense of belonging and sparked an excitement for reading that will stay with my students long after this school year.\r\nOnce again, thank you for your incredible support. It truly means the world to our third‑grade family. Your kindness and belief in our classroom remind my students that there are people cheering for them and investing in their growth. We are deeply grateful for you.","fullyFundedDate":1766438322189,"projectUrl":"project/world-of-stories-a-diverse-library-for/9673045/","projectTitle":"World of Stories - A Diverse Library for ALL Readers!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. B","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10236699_orig.jpg?crop=1113,1113,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756775339512","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10236699"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_55494","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":680,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":48,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":52,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":18,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"18.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":92.3,"schoolId":55494,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Hunt Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Hunt Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/puyallup-school-district/hunt-elementary-school/55494"}
