We also added a comfortable bean bag area with special needs-friendly snacks, so students who need a calmer space or extra support can study and focus comfortably.

Thanks to you and the classroom essentials they provided—including cleaning supplies, binders, wipes, manipulatives, toilet paper, and more—my students are more engaged, confident, and ready to learn. These materials allow every student to fully participate, giving them the tools they need to explore, create, and succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1758811657754,"projectUrl":"project/special-education-teacher-belmont-hs/9659405/","projectTitle":"Special Education Teacher Belmont HS","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Abarca","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10060837"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_7305","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":561,"numTeachers":43,"percentFrplEligible":93,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":87,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.3,"schoolId":7305,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Belmont High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Belmont High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/los-angeles-unified-school-district/belmont-high-school/7305"}
