Many immediately asked where it came from, and I was happy to tell them about your generous support. They even volunteered to help distribute the water to the Construction and Culinary Arts classes and took an appreciation photo with their peers. I used this as a quick learning opportunity, discussing photo etiquette, ethics, and the concept of \"selling\" or presenting a product—turning a simple act into a real-world business example.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, having consistent access to water will continue to support students as they take on more advanced projects. It helps them maintain energy, stay focused, and perform at their best while developing real-world skills that will benefit them beyond the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1773083713856,"projectUrl":"project/hydration-for-hands-on-learning/10131518/","projectTitle":"Hydration for Hands-On Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tsosie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10456708"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_61398","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":176,"numTeachers":15,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":39,"percentLatinx":39,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"10 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"11.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":23.1,"schoolId":61398,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Gallup Central High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Gallup Central High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-mexico/gallup-mckinley-co-school-dist/gallup-central-high-school/61398"}
