The moment the boxes were opened, it felt like Christmas morning in our classroom. The students' eyes lit up with excitement, and they immediately began building and exploring with the Lego bricks.\r\n\r\nThis activity has not only sparked their creativity but has also played a crucial role in enhancing their STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) skills. Additionally, it has fostered important Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) as students collaborated, shared ideas, and solved problems together.\r\n\r\nYour contributions have made a significant impact on our students' educational experiences, and we are truly grateful for your support. Knowing that there are people like you who care about and invest in the future of our children is incredibly inspiring.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your generosity and for helping to create such a positive and engaging learning environment for our students.","fullyFundedDate":1731550568928,"projectUrl":"project/reducing-student-stress-and-anxiety-thro/8900819/","projectTitle":"Reducing Student Stress and Anxiety Through More Play and SEL","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kaminski-DeAngelis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7903229_orig.jpg?crop=1348,1348,x0,y583&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1626991783330","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7903229"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_65813","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":606,"numTeachers":54,"percentFrplEligible":56,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":73,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"11.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":55.0,"schoolId":65813,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Griswold High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Griswold High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/connecticut/griswold-public-schools/griswold-high-school/65813"}
