Your kindness has transformed our classroom into a richer, more inviting learning space where books are always within reach.\r\n\r\nYour generosity goes far beyond the shelve. It helps build confidence, imagination, and lifelong learning habits in every child who opens one of these books. We are deeply grateful for your investment in our students and their education!

All students from Kinder to 5th loved and wanted to cuddle with him. \r\n\r\nI keep our lights low, and the string lights set a calming mood in the room as we discuss ways to regulate our emotions throughout the school day and in different situations. \r\nThe positive bulletin boards add to the mood in my classroom. The model magic, rubix cubes, and magnet shapes help when we are having a group discussion where students feel anxious to share. It provides them something physical to release any nervous energy.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for the kindness by sponsoring this project.","fullyFundedDate":1746786433253,"projectUrl":"project/the-serenity-space/9113855/","projectTitle":"The Serenity Space","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Montejano","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9352208_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1704761757955","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9352208"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_83120","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":236,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":69,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"8.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":55.1,"schoolId":83120,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Veterans Memorial Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Veterans Memorial Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/nevada/washoe-county-school-district/veterans-memorial-elementary-school/83120"}
