I am excited to have enough copies of this text, so that it can be taught across the grade level at the same time. Nothing spoils a book more than half of the grade having already read it--and spoiling the ending. Now that's no longer an issue for our district. \r\n\r\nAs local Montanans, my students and I love this book. It is very fun to read as a summer reading book or as a class text in the spring when the fishing gets good, again. Hearing of this grant, the librarian offered to partner with us next year to do a fly tying workshop. \r\n\r\nThank you for all of the opportunities you've created by getting us more copies of this text!","fullyFundedDate":1770841063953,"projectUrl":"project/a-river-runs-through-it-for-11th-grade/9814862/","projectTitle":"\"A River Runs Through It\" for 11th Grade English!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mciver","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7466582"},{"teacherId":7466582,"projectId":9814644,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for gifting copies of Fools Crow by James Welch to our English department.

It's also written by a local author and takes place on land not far from where we live. \r\n\r\nIn the past, we haven't had enough copies to teach it across the grade level at the same time.

The students were shocked to see the clean and new choir folders! These folders keep them organized and add a boost to their spirits.\r\n\r\nOnce they got the new folders, I had the opportunity to teach the students how to hold them properly. They were not familiar with the idea of folders having a strap to keep them open. The three-ring binder attachment was incredibly innovative; students were able to use it to stay organized and keep their music in concert order without the fear of it falling out of their folders. \r\n\r\nThese folders are clean, effective, and have brightened my students' lives.

The 3D filament you help fund will be used across disciplines and by all types of learners. With four 3D printers already in place, the only missing piece is the material to keep them running. Your contribution ensures every student at our high school has the chance to develop practical, transferable skills that will serve them in trade schools, entrepreneurship, college, and beyond.\r\n\r\nTogether, we are building not just projects, but confidence, curiosity, and career readiness. Thank you for investing in our students' futures.\r\nWhat excites our students most is the power to create. The moment they see their digital designs come to life as physical objects, their engagement soars. The 3D printers have become a centerpiece of innovation in our classrooms, inspiring students to ask deeper questions, iterate on their designs, and take pride in their work. For many, it's their first exposure to advanced technology that mirrors what professionals use in the real world—sparking interest in fields like engineering, architecture, healthcare, and design.","fullyFundedDate":1732147221551,"projectUrl":"project/fab-lab/8950897/","projectTitle":"Fab Lab","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rugg","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3809269_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1487533971883","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3809269"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_78584","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":450,"numTeachers":30,"percentFrplEligible":38,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":86,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":68.2,"schoolId":78584,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Frenchtown High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Frenchtown High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/montana/frenchtown-school-district-40/frenchtown-high-school/78584"}
