With its updated processing power and storage capabilities, students can now sort, edit, and design with speed and confidence. Our old computer was outdated and couldn't even receive system updates, which often caused delays and frustrations. This new device has already made a huge difference in our workflow and in the energy of the club!\r\n\r\nWhat excites the students most is how fast and reliable this computer is. They can now see their ideas come to life in real time — from cover designs to layout spreads to photo touch-ups. It's helping them feel more like professionals and less like students struggling with slow tech.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular, who's been shy in previous years, has really taken the lead with photo editing and digital organization on the new computer. Having the right tools has allowed her creativity and leadership to shine through, and it's been incredible to witness.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has not only provided a piece of equipment — you've fueled student voice, creativity, and real-world skill-building. Thank you for investing in our classroom and believing in what our students can do.","fullyFundedDate":1745425388803,"projectUrl":"project/yearbook-computer-replacement/9157826/","projectTitle":"Yearbook Computer Replacement","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Blech","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9966941"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_82408","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":383,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":52,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":31,"percentIndigenous":6,"percentLatinx":47,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":75.9,"schoolId":82408,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Hoover Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Hoover Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-mexico/albuquerque-public-schools/hoover-middle-school/82408"}
