Access to reliable printing at school helps remove a barrier that many middle school students face when completing assignments and projects. While technology is widely used at home, not every student has access to a printer. Having one available in our AVID classroom ensures that students can print essays, research projects, and other assignments they need to turn in with confidence.\r\n\r\nWhat has been most exciting for students is the independence this resource gives them. Instead of worrying about how they will print something at home or rushing to find a printer before school, they know they have a dependable place to finish their work. Many students use the printer to produce polished copies of projects, resumes, and presentations they are proud of. It helps them take more ownership of their learning and present their work in a professional way.\r\n\r\nThis printer has been especially helpful for students who may not have easy access to printing outside of school. Several students regularly stay after class or come in during AVID time to print homework, study guides, and project materials. Seeing their relief and excitement when they realize they have the resources they need to succeed has been incredibly meaningful. Your donation is helping our students stay organized, prepared, and confident in their academic work.","fullyFundedDate":1765163433385,"projectUrl":"project/avid-publishing-and-advertising/9943913/","projectTitle":"AVID Publishing and Advertising","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Garner","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10072096"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_3867","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":620,"numTeachers":30,"percentFrplEligible":20,"percentAsian":20,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":42,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":27,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"20.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":87.3,"schoolId":3867,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Christensen Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Christensen Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/livermore-valley-joint-unified-school-district/christensen-middle-school/3867"}
