Thanks to this support, our students now have access to essential language resources, including translation devices that will help bridge communication gaps and enhance their learning experience. \r\n\r\nFor newcomers or students who need additional support with their translanguaging skills, translation devices play a critical role in their daily learning. These devices allow students to seamlessly navigate the language barrier by translating spoken or written content, helping them understand lessons, participate in classroom discussions, and access materials in their preferred language. This not only fosters a sense of inclusion but also promotes confidence, allowing students to communicate more effectively with peers and teachers. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, these devices empower families as parents can now use these devices during conferences or events to engage more fully in their child's education. This funding truly strengthens our commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for all.","fullyFundedDate":1725573552923,"projectUrl":"project/bridging-language-essential-translation/8700738/","projectTitle":"Bridging Language: Essential Translation Devices for Student and Parent Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Wartella","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3456883_orig.jpg?crop=2626,2626,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1599328361562","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3456883"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_35857","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":472,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":80,"percentAsian":23,"percentBlack":16,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":35,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":69.9,"schoolId":35857,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Park Orchard Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Park Orchard Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/kent-school-district-415/park-orchard-elementary-school/35857"}
