The new high-quality photo printer is already making a significant impact on how our students engage with their work. The technology allows them to transition from digital creations to tangible prints, giving them a deeper understanding of the entire process of photography and design. This hands-on experience helps our students develop technical skills they can use in their future careers, whether they pursue art, design, or other creative fields.\r\n\r\nThe excitement surrounding the new printer is palpable in the classroom. Our students are thrilled by the vibrant, professional-quality prints they can produce, which brings their projects to life in a way they've never experienced before. Particularly, students who have shown an interest in graphic design and photography as a career have especially warmed to this new technology, using it to experiment with different styles and techniques. One student, in particular, has taken to creating digital portfolios that showcase their work in a more professional manner, a testament to how this technology is nurturing their creativity and enhancing their learning experience. Thank you again for supporting our class and helping to elevate our students' education.","fullyFundedDate":1743704998910,"projectUrl":"project/unleashing-ink-redible-art-a-printer-fo/9209878/","projectTitle":"Unleashing Ink-redible Art: A Printer for Student Dreams","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Campbell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9578159_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742913675738","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9578159"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_29263","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":377,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":48,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":94,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":92.5,"schoolId":29263,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Red Bud High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Red Bud High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/red-bud-community-unit-school-district-132/red-bud-high-school/29263"}
