We are thrilled to share how these resources have transformed our art instruction and sparked incredible creativity among our students. Since receiving the clay, my students have been diving into a hands-on sculpture unit that brings our study of three-dimensional art to life. Just last week, we completed our first project—a series of pinch pots inspired by ancient pottery techniques. The moment the students opened the boxes of clay, their faces lit up with excitement. Many had never worked with clay before, and watching them discover how malleable and responsive the material is was truly special. The clay has given every learner an equal opportunity to express themselves and build confidence in their artistic abilities.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we're building on this foundation in exciting ways. Students will be creating relief sculptures and exploring different hand-building techniques. We're also planning a kiln-firing experience where students will see their work transformed through the firing process. Your donation hasn't just provided materials; it's opened doors to deeper learning and genuine artistic growth. We cannot thank you enough for believing in our students' creative potential.","fullyFundedDate":1767062782924,"projectUrl":"project/shaping-their-future/9936931/","projectTitle":"Shaping THEIR Future","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Thomas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9572637_orig.png?crop=602,602,x0,y128&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1744622138397","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9572637"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_28150","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":662,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":67,"percentWhite":23,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":1,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":57.3,"schoolId":28150,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Manning High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Manning High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/clarendon-school-district-two/manning-high-school/28150"}
