Our students LOVE graphic novels - the pictures, along with the words, tell the story in way that kids can really comprehend. All students, but mostly struggling readers, appreciate having the support of pictures to help them determine what is happening in a story.\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, the books that kids want most are often the most expensive. A typical graphic novel can cost over $10. The amount we usually spend on a birthday book is less than $5. With your support, we have been able to purchase many graphic novels - popular graphic novel series like Babysitter's Club, I Survived and Bad Guys are now part of our collection!\r\n\r\nNow all students can have access to their very favorite books on their special day - their Birthday! At Valders Elementary School, we pride ourselves with giving every kid a hand-selected book to celebrate their special day - the addition of some amazing graphic novels is certainly the icing on the cake!","fullyFundedDate":1744238243967,"projectUrl":"project/graphic-novels-make-great-gifts/9241675/","projectTitle":"Graphic Novels Make Great Gifts!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cigler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9510650_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1712963559152","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9510650"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_37614","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":404,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":33,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":88,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 4","studentTeacherRatio":"19.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":37614,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Valders Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Valders Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/valders-area-school-district/valders-elementary-school/37614"}
