By setting up our cabinet and building vertical storage, we were able to clear up a lot of floor space, resulting in significantly more room for our students. With our subjects being so hands-on, this gives the students the chance to not only sit comfortably, but also move throughout the space comfortably. No one can give their best efforts if they feel cramped and overstimulated, so this storage gives us a clutter-free room and clutter-free minds!\r\n\r\nStudents immediately noticed the extra space in the room, and we were able to reorient the space to support learning better. They also now have more classroom autonomy in lab set-up and take-down since everything has a clear and consistent spot. \r\n\r\nBecause it's the beginning of the school year, our students have a fresh start. Our first unit will introduce a lot of the vocabulary in anatomy before we jump right into the integumentary system. In environmental science, we'll jump into our ecological \r\nfootprint. Thank you again for your support of our students.","fullyFundedDate":1755210999062,"projectUrl":"project/science-storage/9255714/","projectTitle":"Science Storage","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Menendez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9731200_orig.jpg?crop=1365,1365,x0,y159&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747865909231","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9731200"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_105192","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":325,"numTeachers":12,"percentFrplEligible":85,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":31,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":60,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"27.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":84.2,"schoolId":105192,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Great Oaks Charter School - New York City on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Great Oaks Charter School - New York City","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-state-department-education/great-oaks-charter-school/105192"}
