For many of our students, learning how to swim or improving their water safety skills is a vital life skill, but missing basic gear can create huge anxiety. Prior to receiving your generous gift, many of my students spent more time stopping to rub stinging, chlorinated eyes or wrestling with long hair in their face than actually learning to swim. Aquatic classes can make high schoolers feel vulnerable, and worrying about leaking, ill-fitting gear only added to their stress. Your support completely transformed our pool deck, turning uncertainty into pure confidence and letting our students focus entirely on becoming strong, comfortable swimmers.","fullyFundedDate":1773984444705,"projectUrl":"project/dont-let-chlorine-cloud-our-dreams/10091440/","projectTitle":"Don't Let Chlorine Cloud Our Dreams","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Garrett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1093471_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1542832645786","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/garrettpe"},{"teacherId":1093471,"projectId":10086448,"letterContent":"On behalf of our entire physical education department and every student who walks through our gym doors, I want to express my deepest gratitude for funding our new yoga mats. In high school, physical education is about much more than just playing traditional sports; it is about exposing students to sustainable, lifelong habits that foster both physical health and emotional resilience. Without proper equipment, however, teaching low-impact fitness and mindfulness was an uphill battle. Trying to perform plank variations, spinal twists, or deep hip stretches directly on a hard court floor was uncomfortable for everyone. Thanks to your support, that barrier has been entirely removed, and our program has been fundamentally transformed.\r\n\r\nThe day these mats arrived was one of the most exciting days of our school year. High school students notice when their learning environment gets an upgrade, and seeing a full class set of fresh, cushioned, non-slip mats laid out gave them an immediate boost of pride. Their reactions ranged from pure excitement to genuine gratitude. Several students immediately kicked off their sneakers to test out the padding, commenting on how soft and supportive they felt compared to the bare floor. There was an instant shift in energy—what used to feel like a chore suddenly felt like an elevated, modern fitness experience tailored specifically for them.","fullyFundedDate":1779292439837,"projectUrl":"project/from-desks-to-downward-dog/10086448/","projectTitle":"From Desks to Downward Dog","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Garrett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1093471_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1542832645786","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/garrettpe"},{"teacherId":10430049,"projectId":10086923,"letterContent":"Thank You for Supporting Our Students!\r\n\r\nThank you for your generous support in providing sports hijabs for our high school students. Your donation is doing more than providing athletic clothing—it is helping create a PE and sports environment where students can participate, compete, and feel comfortable being themselves.\r\n\r\nHaving access to a sports hijab designed for physical activity allows students to participate in PE classes and athletics without having to choose between their religious practices and their love of sports. Your generosity helps remove a barrier and sends a powerful message: you belong here, and there is a place for you on our team.\r\n\r\nWe are incredibly grateful for your investment in our students and for helping us build a school community where every student has the opportunity to be active, confident, and included.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping make PE and school sports more welcoming and accessible for everyone!","fullyFundedDate":1775760428740,"projectUrl":"project/sports-hijabs-for-girls/10086923/","projectTitle":"Sports Hijabs for Girls","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Smart","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10430049"},{"teacherId":9657439,"projectId":10164271,"letterContent":"Thank you again for your contributions to our task boxes project.

The visible timer helps students stay aware of how much time they have to complete assignments, group activities, and assessments. This encourages better time management skills and keeps students focused on the task at hand. Instead of constantly asking how much time is left, students can independently monitor their progress and adjust their pace accordingly.\r\n\r\nThe digital clock also helps create a structured learning environment by keeping both students and teachers on schedule. Lessons can transition more smoothly between activities, reducing downtime and maximizing instructional time. Additionally, a timer can add a sense of urgency and motivation during classroom challenges, discussions, or review games, making learning more engaging. Overall, the use of a digital timer and clock promotes organization, accountability, and efficient use of class time, benefiting both student learning and classroom routines.","fullyFundedDate":1778608863583,"projectUrl":"project/seconds-that-shape-success/10206596/","projectTitle":"Seconds That Shape Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Griffith","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9376182"},{"teacherId":1084091,"projectId":9510224,"letterContent":"First, let me say thank you for donating to my project. Teaching at a low-income school can be heartbreaking at times, and I swore to myself early in my career that materials would never come in the way of a student being successful. For years, I have shopped sales and dug into my own pockets to provide students with what they needed, but the need has increased every year. Your donation enables me to keep true to my word that supplies would not hinder students from accessing academic success.\r\n\r\nMy second reason for this project was to remove technology from the picture and just have students interact with words and their power in a non-digital way. Since Covid, students have hidden behind screens and frequently use technology to avoid work, but also miss the importance of the work in developing skills like reading and writing. Pencils and paper, paper texts, and learning the skills before a computer corrects, suggests, or AIs them out of their own voice in writing has been important, and I have seen great growth in my students. You made this possible.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of my heart, thank you.","fullyFundedDate":1755357285057,"projectUrl":"project/big-kids-need-supplies-too/9510224/","projectTitle":"Big Kids Need Supplies Too!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cato","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1084091_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753941054810","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1084091"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_35925","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1155,"numTeachers":54,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":27,"percentBlack":15,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":26,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":1,"percentMultiracialImputed":9,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"21.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":91.2,"schoolId":35925,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Charles A Lindbergh High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Charles A Lindbergh High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/renton-school-district-403/charles-a-lindbergh-high-school/35925"}
