My students immediately embraced the machine. Their first specific project was designing and creating a new set of T-shirts for our upcoming football spirit games. Watching them collaborate, from sketching the design to loading the vinyl and weeding the final pieces, was incredible. The Cricut has allowed them to move beyond simple posters to producing high-quality, customized apparel and vibrant decorations for pep rallies and school events, giving them a sense of ownership and pride in the school spirit they generate. The next steps for the Spirit Club are to use the Cricut's engraving tool to personalize awards for our sports teams.","fullyFundedDate":1746468759490,"projectUrl":"project/more-than-a-mascot-designing-a-legacy-o/9126347/","projectTitle":"More Than a Mascot: Designing a Legacy of School Spirit!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Jackson, English Teacher/Spirit Club Sponsor","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9085072_orig.png?crop=480,480,x0,y16&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1740251269646","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9085072"},{"teacherId":10093993,"projectId":9501190,"letterContent":"I am writing to express my deepest and most sincere gratitude for your incredible generosity and support. Thanks to you, our DonorsChoose project for TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculators for my AP Environmental Science class was fully funded. Your donation has not only provided my students with an essential tool, but it has fundamentally transformed the way they engage with data and the world around them. The excitement in the classroom since their arrival is palpable, and I wanted to share with you the profound impact your kindness has had on our daily learning.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe most exciting aspect of these calculators for my students is the sheer speed and power they represent. Many of them are already comfortable with technology, but the specialized capabilities of the TI-84s, particularly for scientific and statistical functions, have been a revelation. They love the \"Aha!\" moments—the collective gasps when a complex regression curve perfectly fits their experimental data, or the excitement of instantly visualizing a population growth model and then manipulating the variables to see how different factors impact the outcome. Beyond the group, I've noticed a particular transformation in a few students. One student, who previously struggled with the detailed, step-by-step nature of manual graphing, has become a leader in our data analysis groups. With the calculator handling the tedious plotting, he can focus on the bigger picture of what the data means, and his confidence has soared. Another student, who has always had a passion for numbers but was a bit shy in class discussions, now volunteers to present his findings to the class because he is so proud of the sophisticated graphs he can generate and the insights he can share. This technology has not only leveled the playing field but also empowered students to take ownership of their learning in a way that wasn't possible before.\r\n\r\nIt is truly difficult to fully articulate the profound impact this project has had on my students' learning. Your gift has provided them with more than just a piece of technology; it has given them a tool that fosters critical thinking, deepens their understanding of the scientific method, and prepares them for the rigorous demands of the AP exam and beyond. In a world increasingly driven by data, the ability to collect, analyze, and interpret information is a fundamental skill. Thanks to your support, my students are not just learning about environmental science; they are learning to think like scientists and use cutting-edge tools to solve real-world problems. The TI-84 calculators are a daily reminder of your incredible investment in their education and their future. On behalf of my entire class, thank you again for your extraordinary generosity and for making our project a reality. You have truly made a difference.","fullyFundedDate":1757969978538,"projectUrl":"project/calculating-change-fueling-environmenta/9501190/","projectTitle":"Calculating Change: Fueling Environmental Discovery","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Hernandez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10093993_orig.jpg?crop=640,640,x0,y68&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753479410851","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10093993"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_2651","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":730,"numTeachers":38,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":29,"percentWhite":20,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":46,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"19.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":79.4,"schoolId":2651,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wallace Rose Hill High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wallace Rose Hill High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/duplin-county-school-district/wallace-rose-hill-high-school/2651"}
