We also welcomed many new members to the orchestra this year, and your contribution has given them the tools they need to begin their musical journey.\r\n\r\nThank you so very much for your kindness and support.

Donations like yours are what keeps our students able to be their most unique and creative selves by not having to worry about having access to supplies they need. Many of our students come from low-income families and programs like DonorsChoose takes so much pressure off parents and students and allows them to just be in the moment. \r\n\r\nThe supplies you donated where ones that we use the most and will be put to good use for the Oceans of Problems and Possibilities Project! Students were thrilled to see all of the modeling clay, paints, and other much needed supplies! Students will use these resources to create final showcase projects that they will present to the school and local community. \r\n\r\nAgain, thank you so much for giving so generously and believing in our students like we do! There is no amount of words we could write to truly express how thankful we are.","fullyFundedDate":1746638358420,"projectUrl":"project/oceans-of-problems-and-possibilities/9041921/","projectTitle":"Oceans of Problems and Possibilities","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Salsberry","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9014986_orig.jpg?crop=3468,3468,x0,y358&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759281920385","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9014986"},{"teacherId":9014986,"projectId":8970713,"letterContent":"We cannot thank you enough here at Coastal High School for your generosity of giving to our showcase project! Many times students are limited by what they/we as a school can afford so it was nice to be able to create what we wanted without fear of running out of supplies. We were also able to share some of the supplies with other teachers who were preparing for their community showcase projects. Your willingness to give was very beneficial to our entire school. \r\n\r\nAs materials began to arrive students were so excited to start using them! Having the supplies we needed to complete each product they wanted to showcase really allowed them to dig deep into their creative minds and make some amazing things! Many students do not have the materials they need to complete projects at home and asking their parents might be embarrassing or impossible depending on the family's budget. \r\n\r\nWhen we support each other the way Donors Choose allows us to do, all parties benefit in that we end up with caring, well-rounded students who will approach their adult lives with a giving heart. Please continue to give to others, and please know that it is with the most heart-felt thank you that we share our project was a great success because of you!","fullyFundedDate":1735605053500,"projectUrl":"project/where-we-belong-earths-place-in-the-un/8970713/","projectTitle":"Where We Belong: Earth's Place in the Universe","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Salsberry","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9014986_orig.jpg?crop=3468,3468,x0,y358&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759281920385","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9014986"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104834","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":198,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":55,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":12,"percentWhite":65,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":66.7,"schoolId":104834,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Coastal Leadership High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Coastal Leadership High School ","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/south-carolina-department-of-education/coastal-leadership-academy/104834"}
