Because of the generous donations we received, we were able to bring in microphones, lighting equipment, and other important tools that truly helped pull our performances together. These additions made the experience feel more professional and exciting for both the students and the audience.\r\n\r\nThe new equipment gave our students the opportunity to perform with confidence and pride. Having proper microphones allowed every voice to be heard clearly, while the lighting helped create an atmosphere that made each performance feel special. The students were so excited to see their hard work come to life in a way that felt authentic and memorable.\r\n\r\nWe are incredibly thankful for the support we received through DonorsChoose. The donations not only improved the quality of our productions, but also gave students a chance to express themselves creatively and build confidence through the performing arts.

When I told them that out donors choose have been funded they were so excited. There were a handful of things that helped us with our agility which is important when it comes to volleyball. I had a few of my players open the packages and held up all of the things that we received. One of the best ones was how excited my players were to see new antenna's for the volleyball net. The ones that we were using kept falling off every time a ball would hit the net. Donors choose is truly so magical and such a great opportunity. Not only for teachers and coaches but for the students and players as well. They get so happy seeing that people actually care about what they are interested in! I am just so happy for my players.","fullyFundedDate":1771033176765,"projectUrl":"project/middle-school-volleyball-supplies/10092283/","projectTitle":"Middle School Volleyball Supplies!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. McNamara","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10430248_orig.png?crop=572,572,x0,y13&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1770652728360","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10430248"},{"teacherId":10358696,"projectId":9912631,"letterContent":"Because of you, our 6th and 7th grade Learning Support classrooms have been transformed into more comfortable, inclusive spaces where students can truly thrive.\r\n\r\nYour generosity funded flexible seating that supports focus, movement, and independence. For many of our students, traditional seating can be a challenge. The wobble stools, floor cushions, and alternative workspaces now allow them to regulate their bodies while staying engaged in learning. We are already seeing improved focus, increased participation, and greater confidence.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, our students feel empowered. They are making thoughtful choices about where they learn best, building independence and self-esteem along the way. You didn't just provide seating — you created opportunity.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and investing in their success. Your impact is felt every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1771029517213,"projectUrl":"project/comfortable-classrooms-confident-learne/9912631/","projectTitle":"Comfortable Classrooms, Confident Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Koteski","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10358696"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_91202","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":626,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":33,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":91,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"19.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":88.6,"schoolId":91202,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wendover Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wendover Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/hempfield-area-school-district/wendover-middle-school/91202"}
