Thanks to your thoughtful contributions, we have been able to purchase a brand-new 3D printer — a transformative tool that has already begun to revolutionize the way our students learn, create, and innovate. Your investment in our classroom is an investment in the futures of these young minds, and we cannot overstate how meaningful that is to all of us.\r\n\r\nThe new 3D printer has been a true game-changer for our students. With its advanced technology, our class can now bring their designs to life faster than ever before — dramatically cutting print times compared to our old equipment and allowing students to iterate on their ideas quickly and efficiently. Projects that once took an entire school day to print can now be completed in just a couple of hours, giving students more time to experiment, refine, and truly explore their creativity. From engineering prototypes to artistic creations, the possibilities are now virtually limitless. We are endlessly grateful for your support, and we hope you know that your generosity will have a lasting impact on our students for years to come.","fullyFundedDate":1768940721185,"projectUrl":"project/new-year-new-3d-printer/9967885/","projectTitle":"New Year, New 3D Printer","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Gardella","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6328838_orig.jpg?crop=576,576,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1648995177402","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6328838"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_101413","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":730,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":94,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.4,"schoolId":101413,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cesar Chavez Academy High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cesar Chavez Academy High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/michigan/michigan-department-of-education/cesar-chavez-high-school/101413"}
