They had been feeling a little discouraged before, but your generosity gave them a renewed sense of excitement and motivation. We immediately put the materials to use collaborating on our final math project of the year. They worked harder than ever, determined to make the most of what we'd been given.\r\n\r\nAs a teacher, it's often difficult to provide my students with the tools they need, especially when our school is on a tight budget. Your donation filled a gap I couldn't cover on my own, and it truly changed the culture of our classroom. The end of our school year became a celebration of learning, teamwork, and possibility, all thanks to you. Next, my students will build on these skills as they tackle new math challenges with confidence, using the same motivation with the supplies you helped provide.","fullyFundedDate":1746698784788,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-success/9119403/","projectTitle":"Fueling Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Fields","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8083254_orig.jpg?crop=935,935,x16,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1758803444602","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8083254"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_105185","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":438,"numTeachers":16,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":73,"percentWhite":20,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":"27.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":60.9,"schoolId":105185,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Louisiana Key Academy - Capital on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Louisiana Key Academy - Capital","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/louisiana/louisiana-state-board-of-elementary-and-secondary-education/louisiana-key-academy/105185"}
