Your donation helps students feel more comfortable, confident, and cared for while they are at school.\r\nEvery item donated supports students through difficult moments, whether they are dealing with stress, food insecurity, exhaustion, or challenges outside of school. Because of you, students know there is a safe place they can turn to for support and compassion.\r\nBeyond the physical items themselves, your kindness sends a powerful message to our students: they matter, their well being matters, and they are not alone.\r\nThank you for helping us create a school environment rooted in dignity, empathy, and care.

Thanks to you, students were able to put this incredible tool to use right away, and the impact has been immediate and meaningful.\r\nStudents are currently sewing bags, stuffed animals, and clothing, and the serger has completely transformed their learning experience. Its user friendly features have made it easy for students to learn how to use the machine with confidence, even if they are new to sewing. Unlike a regular sewing machine, the serger allows them to create secure, professional seams without needing to go back and fix missed areas, which has been both empowering and motivating for them.\r\nBecause of this machine, students are producing higher quality work, building technical skills, and gaining pride in what they create. They are learning industry-relevant techniques while also experiencing the joy of seeing their ideas come together successfully.\r\nYour generosity has given students access to tools that elevate their creativity, skills, and confidence. Thank you for investing in their learning and for helping make our classroom a place where hands on creativity truly thrives.","fullyFundedDate":1761585313469,"projectUrl":"project/create-professionally-finished-designs-w/9769191/","projectTitle":"Create Professionally Finished Designs with a Serger Sewing Machine","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Love","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6378454_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723680157002","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6378454"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_23947","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":485,"numTeachers":46,"percentFrplEligible":59,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":82,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"7 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"10.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":76.9,"schoolId":23947,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sullivan West High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sullivan West High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/sullivan-west-central-school-district/sullivan-west-high-school/23947"}
