Your kindness and support have made it possible to purchase versatile seating options, create collaborative meeting spaces that encourage meaningful communication, and establish a warm, welcoming environment where every student feels valued and inspired to learn. The impact of your donations extends far beyond the physical materials—you've invested in our students' sense of belonging and their ability to engage with their education in ways that honor their individual learning styles and needs.\r\nIt's an unfortunate reality that schools remain underfunded, leaving teachers to bear the financial burden of essential supplies and equipment out of their own pockets. Teaching video production is particularly expensive, as the tools and technology required to give students authentic, hands-on experience can quickly become cost-prohibitive. With New Jersey poised to welcome countless job opportunities in media and technology fields over the next five years, preparing our students with the skills they need has never been more critical. Thanks to your generosity, we can continue providing the high-quality instruction and resources our students deserve as they grow into the innovative professionals of tomorrow. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in our students and making this project a reality!","fullyFundedDate":1746632450036,"projectUrl":"project/nurturing-minds-through-thoughtful-space/9258568/","projectTitle":"Nurturing Minds Through Thoughtful Spaces: A Passion Project","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Duarte","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10000514_orig.jpg?crop=138,138,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1744925570295","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10000514"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_81285","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":754,"numTeachers":72,"percentFrplEligible":32,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":10,"percentWhite":65,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"10.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":87.5,"schoolId":81285,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about West Deptford High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"West Deptford High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-jersey/west-deptford-township-school-district/west-deptford-high-school/81285"}
