These headphones are used daily during reading and math programs, interactive lessons, and mindfulness sessions. Many of our students rely on technology-based learning tools that help them work at their own pace, and having quality headphones allows them to concentrate without distraction. During mindfulness time, these headphones also create a calm and peaceful atmosphere, helping students learn how to manage stress, regulate emotions, and prepare their minds for learning.","fullyFundedDate":1758290841593,"projectUrl":"project/relying-on-supplying/9484918/","projectTitle":"Relying On Supplying!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vivian","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6786303_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1598571893700","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6786303"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_64838","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1675,"numTeachers":112,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":11,"percentBlack":17,"percentWhite":46,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":18,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":77.8,"schoolId":64838,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sherwood High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sherwood High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maryland/montgomery-county-public-schools/sherwood-high-school/64838"}
