Because of your support, my students now have access to engaging, hands-on resources that allow them to explore, build, and learn in ways that go far beyond traditional instruction. We have been using these materials during our learning centers and small-group activities, where students can actively practice important skills while collaborating with their classmates. One memorable moment was watching students eagerly dive into the materials for the first time—there were smiles, excitement, and so many curious questions as they began discovering all the ways they could learn through doing.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the excitement in the classroom was incredible. Students were immediately drawn to the new resources and could not wait to start using them. Many of them expressed how much they loved learning by touching, building, and experimenting rather than only working from worksheets. These hands-on experiences have helped boost their confidence, increase engagement, and encourage teamwork as they solve problems and explore new ideas together.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our classroom is becoming a place where curiosity and creativity thrive. As we move forward, students will continue using these resources to support upcoming lessons and projects that focus on critical thinking, collaboration, and real-world problem solving. Your kindness has helped create opportunities for meaningful learning experiences that will stay with my students for years to come. We are incredibly grateful for your support and for believing in our students' bright futures.","fullyFundedDate":1765205107680,"projectUrl":"project/hands-on-learning-brighter-futures/9646168/","projectTitle":"Hands-On Learning, Brighter Futures!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bayon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10220794"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_53630","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":465,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":83,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":47,"percentWhite":17,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.3,"schoolId":53630,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Parkway Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Parkway Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/virginia-beach-city-public-schools/parkway-elementary-school/53630"}
