One of the most memorable moments came when students walked in and saw the new soap-making supplies laid out. The molds, oils, scents, and safety gear. Their eyes lit up. Some gasped. One student whispered, \"We get to make this ourselves?\"\r\n\r\nThat day, our art class became a full sensory experience. Students learned the science behind saponification, experimented with color and fragrance combinations, and designed packaging with entrepreneurial flair. They were so engaged that cleanup time turned into brainstorming for what they could make next.\r\n\r\nNow, they're asking to make candles and we're saying yes. This next step will deepen their understanding of heat transfer, design, and product development. It's more than crafting, it's STEAM in action, and it's building confidence, teamwork, and real-world skills.\r\n\r\nYour donation didn't just provide materials it sparked a movement. Thank you for giving our students the tools to dream, create, and grow.","fullyFundedDate":1748217510809,"projectUrl":"project/where-art-meets-soap/9377098/","projectTitle":"Where Art Meets Soap","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Alberson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/alberson"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104165","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":200,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":79,"percentWhite":10,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":42.2,"schoolId":104165,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Jacksonville Lighthouse Charter High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Jacksonville Lighthouse Charter High School ","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arkansas/arkansas-department-of-education/jacksonville-lighthouse-cs/104165"}
