Many students were nervous we wouldn't be able to get more materials or they would have to spend countless hours fundraising and begging businesses for money, however a company stepped in and fully funded our program. They were thrilled that more teams could be formed and build competitive designs. The next steps are to attend the regional SeaPerch competition to see how well their designs hold up under competition conditions. Again, thank you for your generosity and investment into our students.","fullyFundedDate":1761148751654,"projectUrl":"project/parts-needed-to-create-underwater-robot/9795636/","projectTitle":"Parts Needed to Create Underwater Robot Designs","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Diehl","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3136089_orig.png?crop=302,302,x224,y13&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759782778012","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3136089"},{"teacherId":3136089,"projectId":9795095,"letterContent":"Students have successfully built an underwater robot and is set to compete in the regional SeaPerch competition in March.

They were super excited to get started and although it was difficult at first, they gained confidence and started to initiate ideas and new designs together. They quickly formed a working team which helped each other and shared ideas and supported new and different approaches to the problem.
