These toolkits were incredibly useful during our unit on Similarity, in which students had to construct dilations and measure angles. They will be more useful still in the next semester when we begin our units on trigonometry and special right triangles, coordinate geometry, and circles.\r\n\r\nThe students were very excited when I told them about the fundraiser and how they would all be receiving brand new tools. They were especially excited to be able to have a choice in color! I was able to draft a contract for the students to sign illustrating that they are responsible for the materials on loan to them as a means of teaching them responsibility and accountability. Students signed and returned them to me and they were able to begin using their materials right away. They were even helpful for the students Final assessment this semester.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and generosity!

What began as a simple request for nutritious snacks has become something far more meaningful—a foundation of care that allows these resilient young people to focus on learning rather than hunger. I am deeply grateful for the profound impact your kindness has created in our classroom.\r\n\r\nYour support makes a tangible difference in countless daily moments. Just last week, I watched one of my students grab a granola bar before our college application discussion. Previously, she would struggle to concentrate after skipping breakfast, often putting her head down mid-period. Now, with proper nutrition fueling her focus, she actively participated for the entire period, asking thoughtful questions about financial aid and sharing her dreams of becoming the first in her family to attend university. Similarly, another one of my students no longer has to choose between staying for tutoring or going home for dinner. The trail mix and crackers you provided give him the sustained energy to excel in academics.\r\n\r\nYour generosity extends far beyond nutrition—it has removed barriers and created an environment where learning truly flourishes. These snacks have become symbols of care, reminding my students daily that people believe in their potential. Thank you for seeing the promise in these amazing young people and giving them the fuel they need to reach their dreams. Your impact will echo in every success they achieve.","fullyFundedDate":1742823838626,"projectUrl":"project/snack-attack-to-fight-low-energy/9021450/","projectTitle":"Snack Attack to Fight Low Energy!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bocanegra","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8151939"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104555","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":644,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":93,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":98,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"25.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":85.5,"schoolId":104555,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Marquez High School - Libra Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Marquez High School - Libra Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/los-angeles-unified-school-district/marquez-high-school-libra-acad/104555"}
