It's interesting, because in the field of cybersecurity and IT, it can be difficult to find books that are engaging and attractive to students--particularly high schoolers, who in general don't like to read anyway!\r\n\r\nHowever, I'm happy to report that the books we received were great for my students. My girls were excited to have access to the book about Girls Who Code, an amazing organization for girls who have an interest in this underrepresented career field. The students loved that they received YA books about interesting characters that they can relate to, including the protagonist in the Greyson Grey books. And I have one student who is voraciously reading the books during our Career Center's break time for the classes.\r\n\r\nThanks again SO much for your kind giving to support our students. You are making a huge difference in their lives.","fullyFundedDate":1733854509983,"projectUrl":"project/building-a-tech-tastic-library/8914123/","projectTitle":"Building a Tech-tastic Library!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Avery","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp93998_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1714909778809","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-l-avery"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_18760","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":550,"numTeachers":12,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":56,"percentWhite":22,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"45.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":30.8,"schoolId":18760,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sumter County Career Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sumter County Career Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/sumter-school-district/sumter-co-career-center/18760"}
