Your contribution has made a meaningful and lasting impact on my students, providing them with hands-on learning experiences that bring science to life in ways that traditional instruction alone cannot.\r\n\r\nThrough the use of these STEAM kits, students have been actively engaged in developing their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. They have worked collaboratively to design, build, and race both cars and boats, applying scientific concepts while also learning the importance of teamwork, communication, and perseverance.\r\n\r\nWhat has been especially rewarding is seeing students of varying abilities come together with a shared sense of purpose. Each student has been able to contribute in their own way, building confidence and social skills as they work within a team dynamic. These experiences not only strengthen their understanding of science but also foster a sense of belonging and accomplishment.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has opened doors for my students that extend far beyond the classroom. You have helped create an environment where curiosity is encouraged, creativity is celebrated, and every student has the opportunity to succeed.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your support and for investing in the future of our students. The impact of your contribution is truly appreciated.","fullyFundedDate":1764394855561,"projectUrl":"project/stem-kits-for-special-education/9930069/","projectTitle":"STEM Kits for Special Education","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Johns","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8189570_orig.jpg?crop=951,951,x0,y158&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1764370054692","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8189570"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_31979","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2443,"numTeachers":111,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":9,"percentWhite":32,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":47,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"22.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.2,"schoolId":31979,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Valley Vista High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Valley Vista High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/dysart-unified-school-district/valley-vista-high-school/31979"}
