I just wanted to let you know that these have been used countless times by my kids. So many tend to forget theirs or the ones they do have don't work. Instead of having to send them out during instruction to go in a hunt to get it fixed, I can keep them in class and have them use one of these until we have a break. They aren't missing important content and that is because of you. A big thing in my class is also equity. I do make all students use their school Chromebooks because not everyone can afford the nicer MacBooks or fancy pcs. These help accomplish that.","fullyFundedDate":1758546542403,"projectUrl":"project/chromebooks-for-kids/9718587/","projectTitle":"Chromebooks for Kids!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. De Angelis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7960289_orig.png?crop=475,475,x0,y83&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1660071062470","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7960289"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_98935","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2511,"numTeachers":130,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":10,"percentWhite":66,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"19.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":83.3,"schoolId":98935,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about William Amos Hough High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"William Amos Hough High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/charlotte-mecklenburg-school-district/william-a-hough-high-school/98935"}
