While we were fortunate to have a solid collection of tools and materials, we struggled to keep track of everything. This issue became even more apparent during our first competition, where our pit station was a chaotic mess. Trying to make last-minute fixes to the robot was stressful and inefficient, simply because we couldn't find what we needed quickly.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generous donation, we received high-quality organization bins that have completely transformed our classroom workspace. Tools and components are now clearly labeled, sorted, and easy to access. The change has not only improved our workflow but has also helped our students take greater ownership of their space. One student even said, \"It finally feels like a real workshop.\" It's been exciting to see how something as simple as proper storage can boost morale and teamwork.\r\n\r\nNow, with a more functional workspace, our students are focused on designing and building new attachments as we begin prototyping for next season. They're working more efficiently and thinking more critically about how to structure their work. Your support has made a lasting impact—not just on how we store materials, but on how our students approach problem-solving and collaboration. Thank you for giving them the tools to succeed, both on and off the competition field.","fullyFundedDate":1743159346599,"projectUrl":"project/help-our-frc-team-stay-organized-and-rea/9169991/","projectTitle":"Help Our FRC Team Stay Organized and Ready to Compete","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Hills","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6320027"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_23839","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":525,"numTeachers":41,"percentFrplEligible":2,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":72,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"12.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":23839,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Hastings High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Hastings High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/hastings-on-hudson-union-fr-sd/hastings-high-school/23839"}
