Some students have taken photos of their friends because they want to remember them, and next year they will be attending different schools. \r\nAfter taking a photo, students used a graphic organizer to start writing a descriptive paragraph or story about their photo. Their writing is being workshopped, and many students have already completed their final draft of their paragraph. For our end-of-the-year celebration, students will display their work in the hallways, so that their family and friends can see their stunning projects. The photo will be framed above their paragraphs, and this project will serve as a piece they put careful effort into that they can take home on the last day of school. \r\nThank you for your support and for making this project possible for our fantastic students!","fullyFundedDate":1738246588158,"projectUrl":"project/a-camera-to-document-our-projects-more/8923181/","projectTitle":"A Camera to Document Our Projects & More!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Sadacca","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9574757_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y772&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723318865512","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9574757"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_132148","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":43,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":55,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Record","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":132148,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Newcomer's Learning Community School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Newcomer's Learning Community School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/virginia/albemarle-county-school-district/newcomer-s-learning-community-school/132148"}
