Our classroom printer is now stocked with ink, which has completely transformed how we celebrate achievements and display student work.\r\n\r\nHow the technology helps my students learn:\r\nWith access to color printing, students are more motivated to complete their work at a high standard, knowing their projects, certificates, and showcase pieces will shine brightly on the walls. Our IXL certificates are no longer plain black and white but vibrant, celebratory awards that make students beam with pride. The colorful visuals also make our Brag Board and Student Showcase far more engaging, drawing students (and even visitors) to stop, read, and admire one another's accomplishments.\r\n\r\nWhat excites students the most:\r\nThe biggest thrill for my students is seeing their names and achievements displayed in bright, bold colors. When they receive a certificate with colorful borders and graphics, they feel recognized in a way that truly stands out. Even small details, like printing classroom projects with full visuals, have brought new energy into our lessons.\r\n\r\nSpecific student responses:\r\nOne of my students who was hesitant about math has now been pushing himself harder on IXL just so he can earn another brightly colored certificate to take home and hang on the fridge. Others love pointing out their work on the Brag Board and are more invested in making their projects neat, accurate, and creative, because they know their final product will be proudly displayed.\r\n\r\nYour gift has done more than refill a printer—it has reignited excitement, motivation, and pride in my classroom. Thank you for giving my students the chance to shine in full color!","fullyFundedDate":1683875581718,"projectUrl":"project/color-our-world/7364484/","projectTitle":"Color Our World","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bishop","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4438248_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1625794057661","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/kristi-bishop"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_49819","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":278,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":88,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":64,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":47.3,"schoolId":49819,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Woodland Park Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Woodland Park Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/michigan/michigan-department-of-education/woodland-park-academy/49819"}
