The iPads you've provided have transformed the learning experience in our Autistic Support classroom. These devices allow us to offer personalized, flexible learning opportunities for our students. With interactive apps and programs that include visual and auditory supports, the iPads cater to our students' unique needs, helping them with focus, comprehension, and organization. They can learn at their own pace, revisiting lessons as needed, which builds their confidence and enhances their understanding of key concepts.\r\n\r\nThe excitement our students feel when using the iPads is truly remarkable. Many students who struggle with traditional learning methods are now able to engage with lessons in new, exciting ways, like using speech-to-text apps to express themselves or interactive games to practice skills. The hands-on, tactile nature of the iPads also appeals to students who learn best through touch and movement. We've seen significant progress in students who were previously challenged by communication or social skills, as the iPads give them new avenues to practice and grow in a low-pressure environment.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, these iPads have given our students tools that help them unlock their potential in ways we couldn't have imagined before. We are deeply grateful for your help in making this possible. Your generosity is making a real difference in their lives!","fullyFundedDate":1734041757789,"projectUrl":"project/empowering-learning-with-ipads-for-our-a/8789871/","projectTitle":"Empowering Learning with iPads for Our Autistic Support Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gaul","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5442262_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726508437944","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5442262"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_90134","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":688,"numTeachers":38,"percentFrplEligible":30,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":91,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"18.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":85.7,"schoolId":90134,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Neshannock Memorial Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Neshannock Memorial Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/neshannock-township-school-district/neshannock-memorial-elementary-school/90134"}
