These experiences don't just teach science—they build confidence, collaboration, and curiosity.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our classroom will be buzzing—literally and figuratively—with innovation, energy, and discovery.

My students have learned to grow, harvest, and use flower blossoms to create amazing artistic images. They have discovered the enhancement that flowers add to our daily lives.\r\n\r\nMy students were excited to receive the materials necessary for planting, growing and harvesting flowers. The microwave flower presses enabled the students to dry the flowers quickly while maintaining their vibrant colors. We will continue to grow and harvest flowers during the next season allowing us to investigate new methods and ideas for showcasing our flower arrangements.\r\n\r\nThank you again for providing my class with the opportunity to learn, grow, and discover within the walls of our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1730404313233,"projectUrl":"project/learning-through-blossoms-of-color/8493538/","projectTitle":"Learning through Blossoms of Color","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Stirewalt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2909795"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_72255","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":573,"numTeachers":38,"percentFrplEligible":66,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":90,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":6,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"5 - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"15.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":78.1,"schoolId":72255,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Jasper Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Jasper Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/pickens-county-school-district/jasper-middle-school/72255"}
