Sometimes it's the simplest tools that make the biggest difference, and that has certainly been the case this month.\r\n\r\nThe large Post-it easel pads have been a massive hit in my Human Geography and Modern World History classes. Instead of students being hunched over their desks, they are up on their feet, moving around the room, and mapping out historical trends on the walls. There is a specific kind of energy that happens when students start debating ideas on a giant display—it turns a standard lesson into a collaborative event. Seeing them take ownership of their work like this has been the highlight of my week.\r\n\r\nThe 200 pairs of wired headphones have been, quite literally, a lifesaver. As we navigate the new South Carolina policies regarding cell phones and wireless accessories, these headphones have allowed us to keep our momentum. My students can still dive into the audio-visual parts of our digital curriculum without missing a beat or breaking district rules. They were so relieved to have high-quality, reliable gear that just works when they plug it in.\r\n\r\nFinally, a huge thank you from the Marching Band. In a completely self-funded program, it's often the \"hidden\" costs—like socks—that weigh the heaviest on parents and directors. Supplying the uniform room with new socks might seem like a small detail to some, but to our performers and their families, it was a huge gesture of support.\r\n\r\nYou haven't just sent us supplies; you've genuinely fueled the morale of our entire school community. We are so grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1765327345343,"projectUrl":"project/mr-coombss-class-needs/9572470/","projectTitle":"Mr. Coombs’s Class Needs","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Coombs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ccoombs"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_105481","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2117,"numTeachers":127,"percentFrplEligible":48,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":68,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":8,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"16.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":50.0,"schoolId":105481,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about River Bluff High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"River Bluff High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/lexington-county-school-district-1/river-bluff-high-school/105481"}
