I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation that has allowed me to purchase additional informational books for my classroom. Your support has made a tremendous difference in the lives of my students, and I want to share just how meaningful this gift has been for all of us.\r\nWhen I first began expanding our classroom library, my goal was to create an environment where every student, regardless of their reading level or background, could discover the joy of reading and the power of knowledge. Thanks to your kindness, that goal has begun to take root in real and inspiring ways. The new informational books have not only enriched our reading materials but have also transformed how my students engage with learning daily.\r\nWe've incorporated these books into multiple parts of our curriculum—most notably, during our research-based reading lessons, where students explore nonfiction topics that spark their curiosity. Whether it's learning about the mysteries of the ocean, space exploration, historical figures, or environmental conservation, students now have the opportunity to dive deep into subjects that interest them. These books encourage them to think critically, ask meaningful questions, and connect what they read to the world around them.\r\nEqually important, beyond academic use, the books have opened new avenues for reading for pleasure. I regularly see students excitedly choosing titles during free reading time or sharing facts they've learned with classmates. For some students, this is their first time discovering how enjoyable nonfiction can be. Watching their enthusiasm grow makes me truly aware of how profound your gift has been.\r\nOne of the aspects I'm most grateful for is the range of reading levels represented in these new books. My classroom includes students with varying literacy skills, and having materials that accommodate everyone has been transformative. Struggling readers no longer feel left behind or discouraged; instead, they feel empowered because they have access to texts they can comprehend and enjoy. Meanwhile, more advanced readers are challenged by texts that push their understanding further. This inclusive library environment has fostered confidence and curiosity in every student.\r\nThe impact of your donation extends well beyond the pages of the books themselves. When students see that people outside of their immediate circle care enough to invest in their learning, it reinforces the belief that their education matters. They feel valued. They feel supported. That sense of encouragement motivates them to work harder and take greater pride in their learning.\r\nOn behalf of my students and myself, please accept my sincerest appreciation for your generosity. You have not only provided resources but have also inspired a culture of learning, curiosity, and inclusivity in my classroom. Your contribution will continue to influence our learners for years to come, as these books remain a lasting resource to fuel discovery, imagination, and understanding.\r\nThank you again for believing in the importance of education and for helping me create a learning environment where every child can thrive.\r\nWith warm appreciation,","fullyFundedDate":1634763241777,"projectUrl":"project/building-a-better-classroom-library/5898463/","projectTitle":"Building a Better Classroom Library","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hartman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8124907"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_83050","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":465,"numTeachers":32,"percentFrplEligible":66,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":39,"percentIndigenous":6,"percentLatinx":46,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 4","studentTeacherRatio":"14.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":37.5,"schoolId":83050,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Yerington Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Yerington Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/nevada/lyon-county-school-district/yerington-elementary-school/83050"}
