The full-year curriculum I was able to purchase has given students clear lessons, projects, and practice activities that make challenging concepts easier to understand. Because everything is ready to use, I can spend more time guiding students individually and encouraging their creativity. Even those who were unsure about coding have grown more confident and enthusiastic, taking on projects with pride and showing real progress in problem-solving and collaboration.\r\n\r\nThe mobile standing desk and transponder have also improved the way I teach. Moving freely around the room and interacting with our display from anywhere helps me keep lessons dynamic and responsive, while giving students more immediate support. Together, these resources have created a classroom environment where students feel capable, motivated, and excited about computer science. Your generosity has not only made a difference for this year's class but will continue to benefit future students as well. Thank you for investing in their learning and growth.","fullyFundedDate":1746585024986,"projectUrl":"project/code-in-motion-engaging-ap-csa-with-int/9315257/","projectTitle":"Code in Motion: Engaging AP CSA with Interactive Curriculum","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Layana","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10012590_orig.jpg?crop=201,201,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746294449813","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10012590"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_98378","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1584,"numTeachers":67,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":30,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":41,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"23.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.4,"schoolId":98378,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Yorba Linda High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Yorba Linda High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/placentia-yorba-linda-usd/yorba-linda-high-school/98378"}
