I absolutely love how they are engaged and quietly focused on the lesson. They were excited to see new aprons, markers, and snacks that are already gone. They have used some of the materials that we have received but we are not done yet! We have not began to reach the surface of what I have planned for them. The next steps for my students will be to create grid paintings-large scale paintings, printmaking using the gel plates that we received, and last but not least, ceramics. Students will be slab building and coiling pots. Thank you for restoring the joy of teaching and giving my students a way to express themselves creatively.","fullyFundedDate":1758820643745,"projectUrl":"project/masterpieces-in-the-making-supplying-to/9621754/","projectTitle":"Masterpieces in the Making: Supplying Tomorrow's Artists Today","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Stewart","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9172378"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_52791","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":593,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":87,"percentWhite":7,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"12.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":50.0,"schoolId":52791,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Watson Chapel High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Watson Chapel High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arkansas/watson-chapel-school-district-24/watson-chapel-senior-high-school/52791"}
