Two days later my students were jumping into projects, creating some of the most intriguing designs I have seen in a long time. The mastery of patience, engagement and design has been off the charts with my students. We have just started the second phase of our pixel projects. Using computational thinking with their maze and 3D designs. I even received emails since had some snow days with the weather and so many were asking me: \"are we going to start right where we left off on Wednesday?\" I haven't ready words like that in a very long time. This was all made possible by you and your gracious donations. We are coming to the end of the trimester for my middle school students and there is already buzz for the upcoming final trimester of the school year what we will be doing. So much this might expand to elementary and high school as well. Thank you for making this possible for my classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1734971742286,"projectUrl":"project/the-pixel-classroom-for-middle-school/8874752/","projectTitle":"The Pixel Classroom for Middle School","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Read","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2935102_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1471712862776","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/readsteam"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_27017","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":575,"numTeachers":47,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":27,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":70,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"12.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":50.0,"schoolId":27017,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Harvard Junior High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Harvard Junior High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/harvard-community-unit-school-district-50/harvard-junior-high-school/27017"}
