These Chromebooks allow students to look up books by the title or the authors name. They can now see if the book is checked out or if it's in stock then they can write the location down and easily find their book. This helps cut down on the searching process and gives them time to find the right book.\r\nWith these Chromebooks my hope is that students will always be able to find a book that they will enjoy . \r\nAgain thank you!","fullyFundedDate":1746786990884,"projectUrl":"project/chromebooks-for-our-researcher/9236914/","projectTitle":"Chromebooks for Our Researcher","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Deb","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9863955"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_25448","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":814,"numTeachers":43,"percentFrplEligible":20,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":89,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":77.7,"schoolId":25448,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about C.A.
