This technology will make lessons more engaging, accessible, and interactive for our middle school exceptional education students. A projector will allow us to display directions, visuals, videos, examples, reading materials, and step-by-step activities where every student can easily see and follow along. For students who benefit from visual supports and repeated modeling, having information displayed clearly will make learning easier to understand and participate in.\r\n\r\nWe are especially excited about using the projector for interactive lessons, life-skills activities, reading practice, educational videos, and collaborative projects. Students will be able to see a task modeled before trying it themselves, helping them build confidence and independence. Your generosity is giving our students another tool to learn in ways that meet their individual needs.

The technology from this project is helping them learn in ways that are more engaging, immediate, and personal. Instead of only hearing feedback from me, students can now see their progress, better understand their performance, and make improvements with more confidence. In a school setting, technology helps turn learning into something students can interact with directly. It gives them another way to build skills, stay motivated, and connect effort with growth.\r\nWhat excites my students most is that the new technology makes learning feel real and relevant to them. They are excited to use tools that help them track progress, improve performance, and feel more involved in their own success. It has brought a new level of energy to our program, and students are more eager to participate because they can actually see the connection between practice, learning, and improvement. For many of them, this has made athletic learning more meaningful and more fun.\r\nI have especially noticed that some students who were once hesitant or less confident have really warmed up to this new technology. Students who do not always speak up in class or feel successful right away are becoming more engaged because the technology gives them a chance to learn at their own pace and recognize their own progress. That has been one of the most rewarding parts for me as a teacher. Your support has not only provided new tools, but also new confidence, new motivation, and new opportunities for my students to succeed. Thank you for believing in them and investing in their growth.","fullyFundedDate":1771872347416,"projectUrl":"project/stabilizing-student-athletic-success/9977253/","projectTitle":"Stabilizing Student Athletic Success","teacherDisplayName":"Coach MARK ERA DE LUNA","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10394966_orig.jpg?crop=2716,2716,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1769107782199","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10394966"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_50000","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":342,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":94,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"12.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":36.2,"schoolId":50000,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Todd County Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Todd County Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-dakota/todd-county-school-district-66-1/todd-co-middle-school/50000"}
