Currently, student senate representatives have been recording commercials and are creating content for school wide events and initiatives. They have successfully recorded and produced a commercial for our school-wide Trunk-or-Treat event with community partners and Saint Joseph's University, and have also developed content for our new PBIS program at Gompers, in which K-8 students are rewarded for being peaceful, respectful, and responsible with monthly incentives. The content is played on our live morning announcements via Google Meets, in which the entire school logs in and watches during homeroom each morning!\r\n\r\nStudents are having FUN creating content and are simultaneously developing leadership, marketing, and other real-world skills that are applicable to a variety of career paths and future endeavors. We are looking forward to using the equipment in English Language Arts, to help us complete culminating independent and group projects for our novel studies at the end of Marking Quarter 1, where all 7th and 8th grade students will have an opportunity to use the equipment\r\n\r\nThank you again for your contribution to our school community - this equipment will continue to serve students and families at Gompers!","fullyFundedDate":1781810303497,"projectUrl":"project/on-the-air-podcasting-across-the-curric/10335413/","projectTitle":"On the Air: Podcasting Across the Curriculum","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Hudock","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3589989_orig.jpg?crop=3341,3341,x942,y414&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1778264355123","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3589989"},{"teacherId":3771374,"projectId":10042532,"letterContent":"Our classroom is very grateful and excited about receiving our donations.

Scholars often get teased and bullied for not practicing proper hygiene. This leads to fights, embarrassment and sometimes suicide. Sometimes scholars and their families cannot afford hygiene products they have to choose to feed their families instead.\r\n \tAlso, scholars should be educated about proper hygiene. I made hygiene bags for our middle school scholars, they loved them. I attached a photo of the Hygiene bags that I made. I would like to give out hygiene bags every year. My scholars and I truly appreciate your donation. \r\nSincerely, \r\nPamela Davis M.Ed., BSN, RN, PA-CSN","fullyFundedDate":1762616383395,"projectUrl":"project/help-scholars-feel-good-about-themselves/9752772/","projectTitle":"Help Scholars Feel Good about Themselves!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Pamela Davis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9495083"},{"teacherId":4733338,"projectId":9587216,"letterContent":"Pickle ball has sparked great interest with my students.
