They learned to use green screens, DSLR cameras, external lighting, and basic editing programs— and now that we have a baseline, we are excited to see where we can bring the project next year! \r\n\r\nAll of this is to say: we could not have done it without you and your generous donation! I truly believe this experience will be one these students will look back on for their entire lives, so I want to thank you. Thank you for your contribution to our project. Thank you for giving these students a creative outlet and something to look forward to. And thank you for helping to shape a core memory of their time in elementary school.","fullyFundedDate":1774875542284,"projectUrl":"project/film-screening-foundations/10168889/","projectTitle":"Film Screening Foundations","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tittler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3135242"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_83135","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":769,"numTeachers":58,"percentFrplEligible":23,"percentAsian":14,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":53,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":25,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"13.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":90.9,"schoolId":83135,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Washington Street Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Washington Street Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/franklin-square-union-free-sd/washington-street-elementary-school/83135"}
