The items we were able to purchase because of your donation truly enhanced the teaching and learning in the Vet Science lab. Students were able to utilize equipment that is used in the field with animals at their school. We had to substitute the centrifuge because of lack of availability from the vendor but we were able to enhance the lab with stainless steel tables that upscaled the appearance and feel of the lab. The students are very appreciative and utilize the equipment as part of their regular class exploratory activities, that involve checking animal ears for pests and obstruction and taking care of classroom pets. Thank you for helping our students feel seen and their future invested in.\r\n\r\nIt felt like early Christmas when the boxes came and it created a spirit of excitement and expectation for future learning in the classroom, which is foundational for experiential learning. Next steps include building a classroom into a lab that mirrors a Vet clinic.","fullyFundedDate":1761257014674,"projectUrl":"project/supply-items-needed-for-school-based-vet/9789965/","projectTitle":"Supply Items Needed for School-Based Vet Tech Pet Care/Spa","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morris","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9115797_orig.jpg?crop=2822,2822,x0,y225&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759804919527","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9115797"},{"teacherId":9754089,"projectId":8793444,"letterContent":"These resources helped out immensely with our paper-based dissections, assist in coloring pages for my older students to help them during testing season.

This has already made a noticeable difference in our classroom \"vibe.\" Students who previously struggled with the harsh overhead lighting or felt restless have mentioned how much more comfortable they feel. It has turned our classroom into a sanctuary where they feel safe and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, these materials creates a calming atmosphere particularly the oceanic theme.
