Your donation directly put real materials into students' hands, turning abstract ideas about forces, structures, and design into something they could actually build, test, and improve. Instead of just talking about stability and load, students were able to experiment, fail safely, revise their designs, and try again—exactly how real engineers work. Watching a bridge hold more weight than expected (or dramatically collapse) made the learning memorable in a way no worksheet ever could.\r\n\r\nBecause of your gift, students weren't just following instructions—they were problem-solving, collaborating, and thinking creatively under real constraints. They debated design choices, justified their decisions with evidence, and learned that iteration is not a mistake but a feature of good engineering. For many of them, this project was a moment when science felt practical, challenging, and fun all at once. Thank you for helping create an experience that built both strong bridges and confident young engineers.","fullyFundedDate":1755697128348,"projectUrl":"project/engineering-bridges/9586317/","projectTitle":"Engineering Bridges","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Huntington","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4583739_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1501597145508","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4583739"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_31504","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":251,"numTeachers":35,"percentFrplEligible":89,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":65,"percentWhite":5,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":18,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"7.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":49.3,"schoolId":31504,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Community Charter School - Cambridge on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Community Charter School - Cambridge","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/massachusetts-department-of-education/cmty-charter-school-cambridge/31504"}
