We have had the best time learning through this DonorsChoose project. When the materials arrived, we opened the boxes and pulled out one apron. My students were so excited that they wanted to try them on right away. After we tried them on, we scheduled time with our art teacher to learn screenprinting. The students learned about logos, looked at many common logos, and then designed the logo for our cafe. Then we spent an afternoon screenprinting our logo on our aprons. \r\n\r\nScreenprinting the logos was just the beginning. The students learned how to count money. We learned about customer service. And finally, we set our menu. For our first cafe day, we served coffee, Christmas cranberry drink, Pink drink (similiar to Starbucks), Christmas cookies, and Christmas candy. The wonderful thing is this project is self-sustainable. We will use the money we made to purchase supplies for the next cafe shop day at Valentine's Day. Thank you so very much for supporting my students and their learning.","fullyFundedDate":1726672524879,"projectUrl":"project/an-art-infused-latte/8785231/","projectTitle":"An Art-Infused Latte","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Newberry","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1010299_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750728440850","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/drnewberry"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6161","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":489,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":21,"percentWhite":16,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":57,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":56.7,"schoolId":6161,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Berea Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Berea Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/greenville-county-schools/berea-elementary-school/6161"}
