Your contributions have helped transform our outdoor learning environment into a space where children can explore, imagine, collaborate, and grow. Through your generosity, our scholars have greater opportunities to engage in meaningful play experiences that support their social, physical, and cognitive development.\r\n\r\nSince enhancing our outdoor play spaces, we have seen a remarkable increase in social play and positive interactions among our scholars. Children are spending more time working together, communicating their ideas, building friendships, and learning to navigate challenges with their peers. We have also observed growth in their problem-solving abilities as they experiment, create, and discover solutions through hands-on exploration. Additionally, our enhanced play opportunities provide valuable experiences for strengthening hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and physical confidence.\r\n\r\nYour investment is making a lasting difference in the lives of our youngest learners. Every moment of collaboration, every problem solved, and every new skill developed reflects the impact of your generosity. At One City Preschool, we believe that play is essential to learning, and your support has helped us create an environment where children can experience the joy of discovery while developing skills that will serve them throughout their lives. Thank you for believing in our mission and for helping us provide meaningful learning experiences for every child.","fullyFundedDate":1784137327885,"projectUrl":"project/enhanced-summer-outdoor-play/10200492/","projectTitle":"Enhanced Summer Outdoor Play","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Pickett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9133176_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1777217595484","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9133176"},{"teacherId":10057370,"projectId":9416454,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for you generous donations to my classroom. This school year our campus was faced with some major budget cuts that impacted our ability to get necessary supplies and important supplementary materials for our students. Your generosity facilitated the students I serve to be able to have a rich learning environment even in the face of limited resources and I speak not only for myself as their teacher, but also for their families, when I say that we are so grateful.\r\n\r\nThe students have been thrilled when I introduce materials that you donated. Especially the books. Being able to rotate our reading materials consistently has enhanced our early literacy skills by not only diversifying their exposure to different literature but also by keeping reading exciting. When I switch out book there is always a heightened interest in the library and the excitement level rises significantly.\r\n\r\nAs we move into the Spring we are going to start exploring life cycles usng some of the exploratory toys, puzzles, and science materials that were donated. We will be talking by frogs, butterflies, and more. I am confident the students will learn, grow, and have fun as we continue to benefit from your kindness and generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1760419580913,"projectUrl":"project/stem-and-early-learning/9416454/","projectTitle":"STEM and Early Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Foster","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10057370_orig.jpg?crop=2246,2246,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750274890825","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10057370"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_123985","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":59,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":68,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":64,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":12,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.8,"schoolId":123985,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about One City Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"One City Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/wisconsin-department-of-public-instruction/one-city-senior-preschool/123985"}
