This enabled me to chat with them and get to know them, building positive relationships that increased their sense of belonging in the school.

It is a hands-on learning experience where students take full ownership. They plan menus, prepare meals, take orders, serve guests, and manage supplies.

Our students now have access to a CNC machine that has completely transformed what student learning looks like in our classroom. What was once an abstract design work on paper is now hands on, real word, problem solving. Students are designing parts, digitally, translating measurements into code-driven cuts, and seeing firsthand how precision, planning, and math directly affects a finished product. For many of them, this is their first experience using professional grade manufacturing equipment and it has instantly raised their engagement, confidence, and pride in their work. \r\n\r\nBeyond the technical skills, the CNC has opened the door to deeper learning in math engineering, and career exploration. Students are applying measurements, geometry, and cost analysis in meaningful ways while learning how modern manufacturing actually works. They're collaborating, trouble shooting mistakes, and developing the kind of persistence and problem solving that extends far beyond the shop. Your support didn't just purchase a machine it gave out students access to skills, experiences, and opportunities that will follow them into college and future careers.","fullyFundedDate":1762265320081,"projectUrl":"project/project-cnc/9716870/","projectTitle":"Project CNC","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Boutin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10263183_orig.png?crop=136,136,x0,y1&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1773340550778","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/rjshswoodshop"},{"teacherId":45214,"projectId":9912456,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation of snacks to our classroom.
