Your kindness and commitment to improving the educational experience of my students have truly made a significant and lasting impact on our classroom and their learning journeys.\r\n\r\nAs an educator in the special education field, I work with students who face unique challenges that can make the learning process more difficult. Many of these challenges require individualized attention and specialized resources to ensure that every student has the opportunity to succeed. Without the support of donors like you, it would be incredibly difficult to meet the varied needs of these remarkable students. The supplies you have provided have enabled me to create a more engaging and supportive learning environment, one where students can thrive despite the obstacles they may face.\r\n\r\nThe materials you've contributed, from classroom supplies to learning tools, have been integral in enhancing our learning activities. They've not only allowed for a more diverse and creative curriculum but have also empowered my students to explore and engage in ways that were previously out of reach. Whether it's hands-on activities, interactive lessons, or specialized tools designed to accommodate different learning styles, your donations have made all of these possibilities a reality. By ensuring that our classroom is well-equipped with the necessary resources, you've given my students the ability to fully engage in their educational experience.\r\n\r\nOne of the most rewarding aspects of my job is watching the students grow and develop new skills. Since receiving these supplies, I have witnessed firsthand the positive changes in my students' learning outcomes. They have shown remarkable improvement, not only in their academic progress but also in their self-confidence and emotional growth. The tools you've provided have given them a sense of pride and accomplishment as they work through challenges and overcome obstacles that once seemed insurmountable. Their perseverance and dedication to their studies have truly inspired me, and I know that these successes would not have been possible without your generous support.","fullyFundedDate":1736175998282,"projectUrl":"project/reaching-for-the-stars-in-special-educat/8816177/","projectTitle":"Reaching for the Stars in Special Education!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Maria Manuel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9679004_orig.jpg?crop=451,451,x81,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727129006133","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9679004"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_17163","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2562,"numTeachers":138,"percentFrplEligible":86,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":97,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"18.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":64.7,"schoolId":17163,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Socorro High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Socorro High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/socorro-independent-school-district/socorro-high-school/17163"}
