These tote bags are used to transport their very large math books to and from home. They are also used to transport the books from their lockers to their math classrooms. Each student has their own math book that is paperback and they write in it during class and for their homework. Without the tote bags, their books get destroyed, even if they use backpacks. Now, the books are protected and will last longer.\r\n\r\nSince the books aren't getting destroyed or lost, every student has their book in class and is able to participate fully. This is beneficial for both the students and the teacher because participation has improved and we don't have to provide printouts for students who forget their books.","fullyFundedDate":1783533986514,"projectUrl":"project/middle-school-tote-bags/10344851/","projectTitle":"Middle School Tote Bags","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Folley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10534801"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_93830","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":518,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":14,"percentAsian":9,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":52,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":25,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":6,"gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":89.7,"schoolId":93830,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Arete Preparatory Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Arete Preparatory Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/great-hearts-academies/mesa-preparatory-academy/93830"}
