I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous contribution to our 30 calculator fundraiser. Your support has made a significant impact on our students' learning in algebra class, both today and every day.\r\n\r\nSpecific Impact of the Donation\r\n\r\nThanks to your donation, our students no longer have to share calculators during lessons. Each student now has their own calculator, which allows them to take ownership of their learning. This independence empowers them to decide when and how to use their calculators, making their learning experience more personalized and effective. Concepts that require a calculator, such as solving equations and graphing functions, can now be taught and practiced immediately. This immediate access eliminates wait times, enabling students to engage with the material more deeply and efficiently.\r\n\r\nPersonal Moments of Learning\r\n\r\nOne notable instance occurred during a recent lesson on linear inequalities. With their own calculators, students were able to graph the inequalities and visually interpret the solutions on the coordinate plane. I witnessed students who had previously struggled with the concept suddenly light up with understanding as they adjusted the values and saw how the graphs changed. Importantly, students feel more confident in trying and attempting to solve problems, knowing they can check their answers with their calculators. This hands-on experience not only enhanced their comprehension but also inspired a sense of confidence in their mathematical abilities.\r\n\r\nSincerity in Appreciation\r\n\r\nYour contribution has not only provided tools but has fostered an environment where students feel valued and empowered. Their enthusiasm for algebra has grown, and I am continually amazed by their willingness to tackle challenging problems. This experience has been transformative for them, and we are deeply grateful for your role in making it possible.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your generosity and belief in our students. Your support has created a lasting impact.","fullyFundedDate":1728908125396,"projectUrl":"project/support-freshmen-vocational-high-school/8692856/","projectTitle":"Support Freshmen Vocational High School Classroom: Urgent Need for Calculators","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Matthews","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9700117"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_43247","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":835,"numTeachers":63,"percentFrplEligible":26,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":17,"percentWhite":55,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":19,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":80.0,"schoolId":43247,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Burlington County Institute of Technology-Medford Campus on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Burlington County Institute of Technology-Medford Campus","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-jersey/burlington-county-institute-technical-district/burlington-tech-medford/43247"}
