While many people are familiar with using technology at home, in our classroom it has become a powerful tool for collaboration, creativity, and deeper understanding. Students are not just consuming information — they are using this resource to explore new ideas, solve problems, and actively engage in their learning.\r\n\r\nWhat excites my students most is the opportunity to take ownership of their work in new ways. They love being able to interact with lessons more directly, whether that's through hands-on practice, creating projects that showcase their learning, or receiving instant feedback that helps them improve. The enthusiasm and energy they bring when we use this technology is contagious, and it has made our classroom an even more dynamic and inspiring place to learn.\r\n\r\nI have already seen students who were once reluctant to participate become eager to get involved. For example, one of my quieter students has discovered new confidence by using this resource to share ideas in creative ways. Others who sometimes struggle with traditional methods are thriving because the technology allows them to learn at their own pace. These moments remind me just how impactful your generosity is — you haven't just provided tools, you've opened doors for my students to succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1755734426548,"projectUrl":"project/usbe-ai-for-k12-education/9624165/","projectTitle":"USBE AI for K–12 Education","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Staggs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7788762"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_32992","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":59,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":18,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":95,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":58.6,"schoolId":32992,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Manila Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Manila Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/utah/daggett-school-district/manila-elementary-school/32992"}
