Your generosity has brought new resources into the hands of my students, and the impact has already been felt.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the students' excitement was contagious—they could hardly wait to explore and put them to use. \"Being able to measure to the millisecond is going to make science so much easier to understand!\"\r\n\r\nWe've already used the resources in our many physics labs - Conservation of momentum lab, Crash test dummies lab, Falling objects lab and many more. The students were able to explore real-world applications, ask deeper questions, and work more confidently in groups. Having the right tools allowed them to focus on learning instead of feeling limited by what we didn't have.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we'll be using these resources to conduct more hands-on experiments. My students are already talking about how they'll apply what they're learning, and I can see their confidence growing each day.\r\n\r\nThank you again for giving my students this opportunity. Your support has not only provided materials but has also shown them that there are people who believe in their success.","fullyFundedDate":1757636829589,"projectUrl":"project/no-cell-phones-equals-stopwatches-needed/9621122/","projectTitle":"No Cell Phones Equals Stopwatches Needed!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Pryor","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10187594"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_31880","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1496,"numTeachers":88,"percentFrplEligible":21,"percentAsian":14,"percentBlack":8,"percentWhite":43,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":27,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"17.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":84.5,"schoolId":31880,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Dr John Long Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Dr John Long Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/pasco-county-school-district/dr-john-long-middle-school/31880"}
