All of the supplies have gone to making placemats, creating ornaments, and wrapping them up for our local assisted living homes. Watching students create ornaments, some for the first time, has been such a blessing for our 5th grade students and our community! \r\n\r\nWhen I first brought the materials in, my entire class showed such excitement for the project and were ready to get started. While this project was intended to only go to one assisted living center, it has expanded to a veteran center and some cards will be going to one of our local senior centers because of student involvement and suggestions! \r\n\r\nWe will be delivering our gifts soon! Thank you so much for your help and donations towards this wonderful project! I truly believe that this project adds so much magic for our community during the holiday season!","fullyFundedDate":1757620126983,"projectUrl":"project/holiday-magic-service-project/9671307/","projectTitle":"Holiday Magic Service Project","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. K","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7272396_orig.jpg?crop=1343,1343,x0,y134&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1592171925013","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7272396"},{"teacherId":256915,"projectId":8936336,"letterContent":"What a difference a tool makes! These mini microphones have greatly improved how well the student chromebooks pick up their voices. They cancel out the extra noise and capture their speech clearly. Multiple students reported that now it is much easier to talk into the computer when doing voice-to-text. They rarely have to repeat themselves like they did before using the microphones. I have several students who have an accommodation of voice-to-text. This has made it so much easier and quicker for them to complete their writing tasks because the microphones do what they are intended to do. I am so thankful, and so are the students, for these little gadgets. Thanks again for your support in bringing this project to life.","fullyFundedDate":1731518723382,"projectUrl":"project/students-coming-in-loud-and-clear/8936336/","projectTitle":"Students Coming in Loud and Clear","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rucker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp256915_orig.jpg?crop=578,578,x0,y105&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1665449717093","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/s-rucker"},{"teacherId":256915,"projectId":8339782,"letterContent":"If there's one supply area that always needs replenishing, it's for science. Every year, we manage to go through a couple gallons of vinegar, bottles of glue, bags of sand, and many containers of salt. This makes for lots of fun experiments, but it also means that we have to reach out for help to get what we need since very little funds are allocated for elementary science. \r\nI am grateful that �ǿմ�ý exists and can help us obtain the supplies we need in a timely manner so that we are not dipping into our own pockets to provide essential materials for our students.

Most had only Googled places around the world. Using a hard copy book made a difference in their engagement with locating unfamiliar places. \r\nI found that many of the students continued to look through the colorful atlases after they were finished with their assignments. Their curiosity had been piqued. They discovered the unique names of countries, different bodies of water, and places their families had traveled to on vacation. \r\nIt's been fun to see that spark for new learning! Thank you for helping to provide these atlases as a great learning tool for my 5th graders.","fullyFundedDate":1710623012280,"projectUrl":"project/where-in-the-world-is-it-atlases-for-ki/8158645/","projectTitle":"Where in the World Is It?

They are such champions for public education. My students have benefited several times from their generosity to not only fundraise in their stores and online but also turn around and give back to public schools across the nation. I'm so thankful they chose to support educators and students by not only fundraising but also raising awareness that schools are grossly underfunded.\r\nMy students are creating so much goodness with the extra art supplies they are able to add to their work. Whether it be adding washi tape to give a little *pop* to a writing piece or embellishing cards with beads and jewels for a community service project. Having fun supplies available to students gets more buy-in from them and you can get them to put forth more effort when they know they can add their touch to something.\r\nThanks again for supporting my students and me!","fullyFundedDate":1711588098126,"projectUrl":"project/all-about-art/8278547/","projectTitle":"All About Art","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rucker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp256915_orig.jpg?crop=578,578,x0,y105&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1665449717093","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/s-rucker"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_56536","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":480,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":13,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":74,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"19.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":57.3,"schoolId":56536,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Robert M Martin Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Robert M Martin Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/kansas/andover-unified-school-district-385/robert-m-martin-elementary-school/56536"}
