This fostered collaboration and critical thinking in an engaging environment. The portable grills allowed students to explore principles of heat transfer and fuel efficiency by connecting science concepts to everyday life. It also encouraged independence and responsibility as the students were grouped in teams each having to cook a meal for the day (Breakfast/lunch dinner). Headlamps extended learning opportunities into the evening as well as assisting with safety. Since we have enough headlamps for each student that attends, each student is able to have enough visibility at night to be safe.\r\n\r\nOverall, the donation has transformed the immersive outdoor adventure, promoting active learning, confidence, and a deeper appreciation for science, technology, engineering, and math in nature.","fullyFundedDate":1681388875722,"projectUrl":"project/stem-outdoor-camping-learning/7158957/","projectTitle":"STEM Outdoor Camping Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Banda","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8549041_orig.jpg?crop=1262,1262,x968,y826&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1658926052910","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8549041"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_15867","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2179,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":0,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":95,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":78.8,"schoolId":15867,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Charles H Milby High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Charles H Milby High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/houston-independent-school-district/milby-senior-high-school/15867"}
