This remarkable contribution has significantly enhanced my teaching capabilities, allowing me to provide tailored resources and support for students who have various learning needs. This includes those with learning disabilities, students who are part of families facing economic hardships, and English Language Learners.\r\n\r\n The Apple iPad Pro that I received through your generous donation has been an invaluable tool in my classroom. It enables me to monitor student progress and collect data in real-time, which directly informs my lesson planning and differentiation strategies. This means that I can adapt my teaching methods to meet the specific needs of each student, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to succeed. \r\n\r\n Additionally, the iPad has proven to be particularly instrumental for students who experience social-emotional or behavioral challenges. It allows them to quickly complete emotional check-ins at the start of the day or during times of transition. By using the app \"How We Feel,\" they can identify their emotions and select strategies to help them self-regulate. This empowerment is crucial, as it allows them to reach their behavioral goals and decrease negative responses, as well as time out of the classroom. \r\n \r\n Your support shows a deep commitment to creating an inclusive and equitable learning environment, and I am truly thankful for your belief in our mission to uplift every student. Your generous support has truly transformed the way we approach teaching and learning in our classroom, and for that, I cannot thank you enough.","fullyFundedDate":1738244139583,"projectUrl":"project/data-driven-and-differentiated-support-f/8975679/","projectTitle":"Data-driven and Differentiated Support for Learning Differences","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. LaChapell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9340765"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6627","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":999,"numTeachers":61,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":32,"percentWhite":35,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":25,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"16.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":69.2,"schoolId":6627,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Hughes Academy - Science & Technical on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Hughes Academy - Science & Technical","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/greenville-county-schools/hughes-academy/6627"}
