Since then, the basketballs have become a daily staple in our middle school PE classes. Students use them during skill-building drills, team games, and warm-up activities, and their energy and enthusiasm have transformed our class environment.\r\n\r\nThese basketballs have made a meaningful difference far beyond physical activity. They've helped students build confidence, develop teamwork, and form new friendships during class and recess. It has been inspiring to watch shy students step onto the court with ease now that there is enough equipment for everyone to participate fully. Your support didn't just provide sports gear; it opened the door to joy, inclusion, and new opportunities for growth every single day. Thank you for making such a lasting and heartfelt impact on our school community.","fullyFundedDate":1756096522810,"projectUrl":"project/basketballs-for-all/9640828/","projectTitle":"Basketballs for All","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Anicete","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9497839_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713792903152","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9497839"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_5059","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":742,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":45,"percentAsian":16,"percentBlack":12,"percentWhite":24,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"20.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":76.0,"schoolId":5059,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Golden West Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Golden West Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/travis-unified-school-district/golden-west-middle-school/5059"}
