Your donation has made a significant impact on our students, enhancing their ability to compete, collaborate, and grow both academically and personally.\r\n\r\nMany of our donors use technology at home but may not be as familiar with how it is used in schools. The new equipment—4 mice, 4 mouse pads, and 2 Xbox controllers—has been instrumental in leveling the playing field for our students. With access to reliable and high-quality gear, they can now focus on developing strategic thinking, teamwork, and technical skills rather than being hindered by outdated or faulty equipment. The precision of the new mice and the comfort of the controllers have allowed our students to perform at their best, improving their gaming experience and fostering essential 21st-century skills.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting aspects of this project is witnessing the students' enthusiasm when using the new equipment. Their confidence has grown tremendously, and they are more engaged than ever in practice and competition. Seeing their excitement and hearing their conversations about strategies, improvements, and teamwork is a testament to how much this support means to them.\r\n\r\nSeveral students have particularly benefited from this new technology. One student, who previously struggled with confidence in competitive settings, has flourished with the improved equipment, becoming a key strategist for the team. Another student, who had been hesitant to participate due to limitations with outdated gear, now actively engages with peers, building friendships and developing leadership skills. These stories illustrate how your contribution goes beyond gaming—it is helping students build resilience, adaptability, and a sense of belonging.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, we are creating a supportive and inclusive environment where students can pursue their passion for E-Sports while gaining valuable life skills. We truly appreciate your belief in our mission and in our students. Your support is not just providing equipment; it is fostering growth, confidence, and future opportunities.","fullyFundedDate":1723468172041,"projectUrl":"project/e-sports-club/8536889/","projectTitle":"E-Sports Club!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Schulz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9619118_orig.jpg?crop=949,949,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1722525678365","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9619118"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104710","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":120,"numTeachers":7,"percentFrplEligible":82,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":6,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":85,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"17.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.3,"schoolId":104710,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Escuela Verde Charter School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Escuela Verde Charter School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/wisconsin-department-of-public-institute/escula-verde-charter-school/104710"}
