We are so grateful for you. \r\n\r\nWhen I showed my class the beautiful blue Ipad and stand they clapped and said \"Wow!\" \"People donated an Ipad for us to use?\" \r\n\r\nThese students have been working hard to read and learn their lines for parts in their readers' theater plays ever since.The students are getting experience with performing a play and recording it using the tripod and ipad that you have provided. This experience has allowed these students to start learning about how to be a camera man, producers, and actor/actress. We are excited to see the final production.\r\n\r\nWhen they are finished, with their final recordings of the play we will have an award ceremony to recognize their hard work. I can not wait for them, their families, and you to see how they have grown in reading through acting and learning a script.\r\n\r\nThank you for your support. I appreciate how you initiated the funding for this project. I didn't think this project was going to get funding. I thank God for all of you making it possible.","fullyFundedDate":1757423978130,"projectUrl":"project/lets-get-techie/9491602/","projectTitle":"Let's Get Techie!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Thomas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8679329_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753273215069","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8679329"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_61259","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":498,"numTeachers":44,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":61,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":34,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":65.0,"schoolId":61259,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lake Ridge Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lake Ridge Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/clayton-county-public-schools/lake-ridge-elementary-school/61259"}
