We use our crayons, headphones, markers, and glue sticks pretty much every day so my job would not be possible without all of the supplies donated by you all. In addition, the students love the new stories especially the book, \"The Leaf Thief\" that we recently read. It was a great book to teach them about the changing of the seasons in a fun way. \r\n\r\nIn addition, most of the students favorite time of day is play time. I get asked \"When is play time?\" after almost everything we do!!! The new play doh and toys have been such a hit. Most of them do not have a lot of toys/games at home so they really look forward to using these things at school. I am so appreciative for all that was donated to my students to help them have a successful and FUN year in first grade!","fullyFundedDate":1749591839718,"projectUrl":"project/fresh-start/9400334/","projectTitle":"Fresh Start","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Nolan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8395758_orig.jpg?crop=988,988,x245,y210&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1654738826674","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8395758"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_43733","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":438,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":12,"percentWhite":10,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":72,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":70.7,"schoolId":43733,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Vance Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Vance Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/connecticut/consolidated-school-district-of-new-britain/vance-village-school/43733"}
