Your generosity provides more than everyday supplies—it helps create a welcoming, organized space where students can learn, create, and share their accomplishments.\r\n\r\nThe colorful paper, bulletin board materials, and coordinating borders give us new ways to highlight student work and make learning visible. The paper clips help keep writing drafts and classroom materials together, while the disinfecting wipes help us maintain clean shared workspaces. During our recent Dolly Parton Legacy Perspectives Tribute Project , students used the colored paper and supplies to create hand drawn tributes for display in our hallway. The tributes were featured on our school and district website. This shows how even simple supplies can support meaningful classroom learning.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the materials, they were beyond excited to have new, quality materials for our hall bulletin board displays. Having fresh supplies and a space prepared with care is a reminder that people beyond our classroom believe in them and their potential.\r\n\r\nOur next project is to continue using the materials you so generously provided to display our 9-11 25th Anniversary Research Projects. Students will continue developing their ideas, revising their work, and preparing to share what they have learned. These resources will help us celebrate their progress along the way.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping make our classroom a place where students' ideas and accomplishments have room to shine. We appreciate your kindness and your investment in our learning!","fullyFundedDate":1778263228043,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-materials-that-level-the-playi/9987217/","projectTitle":"Classroom Materials That Level the Playing Field","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hughes","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp19329_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1497877299805","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrspamhughes"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6761","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":455,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":12,"percentWhite":77,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"12.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":43.7,"schoolId":6761,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Blacksburg High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Blacksburg High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/cherokee-county-school-district-1/blacksburg-high-school/6761"}
