Your donations of glue and wooden figures are already making a real difference. At our small Title I charter school, many families cannot provide extra supplies, so your generosity directly enables the children of our community to have the tools they need to create.\r\n\r\nThe wooden figures have become central to our gesture drawing lessons. Students are learning how the body moves and how to capture that energy on paper. It is a skill they would not be able to practice without your help. The glue will be used in upcoming mixed-media projects where students combine drawing, collage, and construction. These projects allow them to experiment, problem-solve, and express themselves in ways that go beyond the page.\r\n\r\nYour support has done more than fill a supply gap. It has shown our students that their creativity matters and that people outside our school believe in their potential. That message is powerful, and it stays with them as they take risks, share their ideas, and grow as artists.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of my students and our community, thank you for helping make creativity possible in our classroom.\r\n\r\nWith gratitude,","fullyFundedDate":1740697483080,"projectUrl":"project/sticky-fingers-no-regrets/9006436/","projectTitle":"Sticky Fingers, No Regrets","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Siebert","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7832205_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1734183633148","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7832205"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_4051","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":518,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":84,"percentAsian":13,"percentBlack":16,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":65,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.8,"schoolId":4051,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Oakland Military Institute College Preparatory Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Oakland Military Institute College Preparatory Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/oakland-unified-school-district/oakland-military-institute/4051"}
