Many had never worked with leather before, and it brought a new level of energy and engagement into the classroom. The swivel stool with a backrest has also helped students stay comfortable and focused during detailed work.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, students will begin creating more advanced projects like custom sheaths and tool wraps, combining both metal and leather to produce functional, high-quality pieces. These experiences are helping them build confidence, creativity, and a unique skill set that sets them apart.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generosity and for giving my students this opportunity to grow and succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1767222022256,"projectUrl":"project/leatherworking-tools/9698782/","projectTitle":"Leatherworking Tools","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Robison","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9639129"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_88337","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1705,"numTeachers":73,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":36,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":58,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"23.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":75.0,"schoolId":88337,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Hermiston High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Hermiston High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oregon/hermiston-school-district-8r/hermiston-high-school/88337"}
