This week the weather has been very warm but the previously we did not want the freezing air to blow in through the fan. The floor fan helps circulate the air.\r\n\r\n75% of the tape has been put on the windows. During high winds (over 20mph) you could hear and feel wind whipping through the greenhouse. That is no longer the case. The two digital thermometers have also been helpful.

The club (Environmental Action Club) had spent more than 60 man hours just cleaning up the space. I am not sure if you want to see before pictures. The club 'took' over the greenhouse this October and it was full of 60+ dead plants. The small baby plants are all spider plants. We sold 30 of them for $3 at a local event, BALD Eagle Days at The QC EXPO Center. We cannot thank you enough.","fullyFundedDate":1763583177610,"projectUrl":"project/hs-greenhouse-needing-a-few-updates-to-b/9900110/","projectTitle":"HS Greenhouse Needing a Few Updates to be Functional","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Dunker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10352682"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_29428","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1686,"numTeachers":99,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":30,"percentWhite":36,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":18,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"17.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":58.3,"schoolId":29428,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Rock Island High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Rock Island High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/rock-island-milan-sch-dist-41/rock-island-high-school/29428"}
