Your support has made a meaningful difference in our daily instruction, directly impacting our students' ability to learn, create, and succeed. Because of your kindness, we can provide consistent access to printed materials such as worksheets, reading passages, graphic organizers, and hands-on activities that support our curriculum.\r\n\r\nThis project has greatly enhanced our students' learning experiences, especially for those who benefit from having clear, structured, and tangible resources. Printed materials allow students to annotate texts, follow step-by-step directions, and engage more deeply with lessons. For many students, having physical copies instead of relying solely on digital content helps improve focus, comprehension, and confidence.\r\n\r\nYour donation has been especially beneficial for students with learning disabilities. These students often rely on modified materials, repeated practice, and visual supports, all of which require additional printing. Thanks to your generosity, we can better meet their individual needs, reduce barriers to learning, and ensure they feel supported and included in the classroom. We are incredibly grateful for your support and the lasting impact it has made on our students' growth and success.","fullyFundedDate":1760115711698,"projectUrl":"project/printer-supplies-refresh/9802896/","projectTitle":"Printer Supplies Refresh","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mango","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10174157_orig.jpg?crop=256,256,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755186389949","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10174157"},{"teacherId":10174157,"projectId":9612473,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity—your donations have made a meaningful difference in my English 12 classroom. Having access to fully charged Chromebooks has transformed the way students engage with reading, writing, and research. Instead of worrying about dead batteries or sharing limited devices, students can focus on drafting essays, accessing digital texts, and collaborating on projects without disruption. This consistent access keeps them on task and supports every part of the learning process, from brainstorming to publishing their work.\r\n\r\nThe donated art supplies have added an entirely new layer of creativity to our curriculum. Students are now able to express their understanding of texts through visual projects, storyboards, and mixed-media reflections. These materials allow them to connect with texts in personal and imaginative ways, which deepens comprehension and makes assignments more meaningful. I've seen students who are typically quiet or hesitant become more engaged when given the chance to create something with their hands.\r\n\r\nYour support has truly empowered my students to learn, collaborate, and express themselves more fully. On behalf of my class, thank you for investing in their growth and making our classroom a more vibrant and accessible place to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1756004776441,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-basics/9612473/","projectTitle":"Classroom Basics","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mango","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10174157_orig.jpg?crop=256,256,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755186389949","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10174157"},{"teacherId":10174157,"projectId":9585516,"letterContent":"I want to sincerely thank you for your generous donation of a classroom printer and printing supplies. This gift has an immediate and lasting impact on my students. With access to printed readings, writing outlines, and other tangible materials, students can now more deeply engage with the content in front of them—highlighting key points, annotating, and reviewing their work in a way that simply isn't possible on a screen. Having physical copies creates opportunities for active learning, collaboration, and stronger retention of material, which is invaluable in an English classroom.\r\n\r\nYour contribution also helps alleviate some of the financial strain on our school's limited budget. Printing is often restricted due to cost, which can make it difficult to provide students with the resources they need most. Thanks to your support, I am now able to provide them with those essential tools without worrying about taking away from other critical needs. On a personal note, this donation also makes my job easier, giving me more flexibility and peace of mind in preparing lessons and supporting my students. Your generosity will be felt daily in our classroom, and I am truly grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1755360449651,"projectUrl":"project/ms-mangos-printing-station/9585516/","projectTitle":"Ms. Mango's Printing Station","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mango","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10174157_orig.jpg?crop=256,256,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755186389949","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10174157"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_4750","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":410,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":78,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":99,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":83.6,"schoolId":4750,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Latino College Preparatory Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Latino College Preparatory Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/east-side-union-high-school-district/latino-college-prep-academy/4750"}
