By far the biggest excitement from students came from the florescent light covers. It gives the class a whole new feeling that is a little less stark and bland. Students have reported that the lights are, \"a vibe!\"\r\n\r\nAccess to materials for our hands-on projects has also made a huge difference. Most classes have a lot computer work, we are able to now take a step back from that and allow students to complete more creative projects that show their learning and understanding of information we have covered. One of our most notable projects was students completing a vision board. Getting students engaged in health class in this way would not be possible without your donation!","fullyFundedDate":1789766298548,"projectUrl":"project/health-student-success/10644146/","projectTitle":"Health Student Success!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Van Schyndel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10328093_orig.jpg?crop=394,394,x88,y110&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1767730925153","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10328093"},{"teacherId":10328093,"projectId":10672331,"letterContent":"My students are so thankful to have new equipment to use for basketball! If you had seen the shape some of the older basketballs were in, it was really sad. Almost weekly we were gluing panels on the basketballs to try to keep using them. They were so excited to see nice equipment on the rack. \r\n\r\n While we try our best to rotate equipment and keep things useable for as long as possible it gets to be extremely difficult to prioritize what items need to be purchased and replaced, and what can make it another year. Basketball is by far one of our most participated in activities throughout all of the gym classes. On Fridays it is not uncommon for us to see students organize their own pickup games during free choice time. \r\n\r\n It may seem relatively small, getting a few new basketballs, but it makes all the difference in the world to the students. They can see that we are trying to provide the best for them, which they may not feel in other aspects of their lives. Now our students are ballin' out!","fullyFundedDate":1791413078814,"projectUrl":"project/we-are-ballin/10672331/","projectTitle":"We Are Ballin'","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Van Schyndel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10328093_orig.jpg?crop=394,394,x88,y110&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1767730925153","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10328093"},{"teacherId":9063757,"projectId":10321678,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredible generosity to our classroom. When my students started school this year, they knew right away that they were cared for and supported. High schoolers don't always wear their feelings on their sleeves, but seeing them feel a little safer made an immediate impact. Having basic necessities like tissues, wipes, band-aids, hair ties, and snacks readily available removes minor distractions and stress, allowing my Algebra 1 and Geometry students to focus entirely on their work. During intensive group problem-solving sessions, having proper writing tools and a quick snack or candy reward keeps energy high and turns tough math concepts into engaging, collaborative working time.\r\n\r\nWith our workspace completely stocked and organized, my students are moving forward into unit projects focused on geometric transformations and multi-step equations. They are using their new notebooks and pencils daily to sketch coordinate plane reflections, draft proof outlines, and present their mathematical reasoning to peers. Your support goes far beyond the physical items. It builds a functional, supportive environment where students know they have what they need to succeed every time they walk through the door. Thank you for investing in our classroom and making a true difference in their daily learning.","fullyFundedDate":1785723735140,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-minds-and-meeting-needs-in-math/10321678/","projectTitle":"Fueling Minds and Meeting Needs in Math Class","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ahrens","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9063757_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1718237452147","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9063757"},{"teacherId":10328093,"projectId":10543489,"letterContent":"Our students were thrilled when they saw me labeling and inflating our new volleyballs! This Friday was one of our first chances to get the new balls out. Students were given the opportunity to engage in an activity of their choice. Many of our students over the course of the day chose to participate in volleyball games! They organize and manage the gameplay all on their own! \r\nIt is always great to see students of different skill levels and backgrounds playing all as one simply for the love of the game. Ultimately it is a short time of the day where they just get to have fun!\r\nI cannot wait until December when we are in our volleyball unit to see the skill growth and cooperation continue!","fullyFundedDate":1789766298516,"projectUrl":"project/volleyball-for-all/10543489/","projectTitle":"Volleyball For All!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Van Schyndel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10328093_orig.jpg?crop=394,394,x88,y110&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1767730925153","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10328093"},{"teacherId":9063757,"projectId":10026602,"letterContent":"After receiving the donations of school supplies and lock boxes, two things have happened. The first is that our review days have leveled up thanks to the breakout room activities made possible by your donation! Students are excited to come to class and really want to work together to open up the lock box. There was one specific group I remember who had most of the correct answers, but couldn't open the box. They spent time excitedly checking their classmates' work and eventually found the mistake. With no blame-placing, they figured out the error and explained the error to the student whose work it was. A cheer erupted as they finally opened the box in victory. \r\n\r\nThe other major impact I see is an increase in student organization. Now when I notice a student's backpack is a mess, I can kindly offer free folders to help them out. This usually leads them to find some assignments that are completed but not turned in. I've seen students develop organization skills thanks to the donated supplies. I cannot thank you enough for your generosity.
