The resources you've supplied—yarn, hooks, books, patterns, and more—have opened the door to meaningful artistic expression and skill-building for our students.\r\n\r\n Since receiving the materials, our students in grades 9 through 12 have been absolutely ecstatic. The excitement in the room was undeniable as they unpacked the supplies and began thinking about their creations.

The Crochet Crew has become a welcoming, creative space where students not only learn a new craft but also form friendships, express themselves, and take pride in what they make with their own hands.\r\n\r\n Looking ahead, we are thrilled to share that we will host a student art show to celebrate and showcase the projects made through this program. It will be a wonderful opportunity to display their talent, creativity, and the growth they've experienced. Thank you again for believing in our vision and for investing in our students. Your generosity has sparked something truly special in our school community.","fullyFundedDate":1741099917545,"projectUrl":"project/stitching-connections-empowering-creati/9118179/","projectTitle":"Stitching Connections: Empowering Creativity With the Crochet Crew","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Perry-Hanley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9923048"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_32351","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":213,"numTeachers":16,"percentFrplEligible":61,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":91,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":72.8,"schoolId":32351,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cleveland School of Arch & Design on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cleveland School of Arch & Design","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/ohio/cleveland-metropolitan-school-district/cleveland-architecture-design-hay-high-school/32351"}
