The moment instantly gave them a sense of belonging in the kitchen and inspired them to take their work more seriously.\r\n\r\nYour gift has transformed our classroom environment. Instead of just practicing skills, my students now feel like true culinary professionals. They will be competing throughout the school year looking like real professional chefs. The confidence and joy you have given them will stay with them far beyond this school year. Thank you for making such a meaningful impact.","fullyFundedDate":1746786890132,"projectUrl":"project/help-us-serve-up-style-culinary-competi/9045915/","projectTitle":"Help Us Serve Up Style: Culinary Competition Uniforms Needed","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. King","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2087052_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1511378764294","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2087052"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_45865","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":599,"numTeachers":35,"percentFrplEligible":59,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":97,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"17.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":70.9,"schoolId":45865,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about West Miami Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"West Miami Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/miami-dade-county-public-schools/west-miami-middle-school/45865"}
