Your generosity has made a meaningful difference in our classroom and, most importantly, in the lives of our students.\r\nBecause of your support, our students now have access to a variety of social-emotional learning tools, comfortable lounge chairs, a new rug, and a carpet cleaner. These may seem like simple classroom materials, but they have created a space where students feel more comfortable, supported, and ready to learn.\r\nThe social and emotional tools have given us additional ways to help students identify and express their feelings, practice coping strategies, build positive relationships, and work through challenging moments. The lounge chairs and rug have also helped transform our classroom into a more welcoming and calming environment. Students have a comfortable place to take a break, read, talk, or simply regroup when they need a moment.\r\nEven the carpet cleaner has made an important difference! Having a clean, comfortable classroom space allows us to maintain an environment that students can be proud of and enjoy every day.\r\nYour donation has helped create more than just a better-equipped classroom—it has helped create a safe, inviting space where students can feel valued, connected, and ready to grow. Your generosity reminds our students that there are people who believe in them and want them to succeed.\r\nWe are incredibly grateful that you chose to invest in our students. Thank you for helping us create a classroom where both learning and social-emotional well-being can thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1778062048971,"projectUrl":"project/engaging-classroom/10102284/","projectTitle":"Engaging Classroom!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Schmidt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9595288"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_38664","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":371,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":72,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":39,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":12,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":15,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":74.8,"schoolId":38664,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Read Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Read Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/oshkosh-area-school-district/read-elementary-school/38664"}
