Your gift didn't just enhance our equipment; it truly transformed the experience for every young musician in our program.\r\n\r\nOur mariachi group has been working hard to grow musically and connect more deeply with our culture, and this new addition has taken us one big step closer to that goal.

Your contributions of personal care items, school supplies, and classroom materials have already made a meaningful impact. Our students were thrilled to receive the items, and it was wonderful to see their faces light up with excitement and appreciation. Simple things like body spray, lotion, makeup wipes, and even colorful bulletin board letters brought immediate joy and a sense of care and community to our classroom.\r\n\r\nSince receiving your donations, we have been using the resources in a variety of ways that enhance both learning and well-being. Students have incorporated the classroom supplies into projects, helping them stay organized, creative, and motivated. Personal care items have given our students the confidence boost they needed, showing them that they are valued and supported. One memorable moment was when a group of students used the colorful bulletin board letters to create a motivational display for our classroom—it was a true collaboration that highlighted their creativity and teamwork.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, your support will continue to benefit our students as they work on upcoming lessons and projects. They are now more engaged and ready to take on activities that require both focus and self-expression. Your generosity has not only provided tangible resources but has also sent a powerful message that our students matter. We are deeply grateful for your kindness and are excited to see the continued positive impact in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1746786148963,"projectUrl":"project/lets-bring-the-joy-in-highschool/9150543/","projectTitle":"Let's Bring the Joy in Highschool!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Capitanachi","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9938689"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104254","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":763,"numTeachers":45,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":95,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"17.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":47.4,"schoolId":104254,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Idea College Preparatory - Alamo on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Idea College Preparatory - Alamo","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/idea-public-schools/idea-college-prep-alamo/104254"}
