Because of your generosity, our students are now able to engage in real-world, hands-on learning that builds both vocational and life skills.\r\n\r\nWe are using the new equipment daily as part of our vocational training. Students take on meaningful roles—preparing drinks, taking orders, practicing customer service, and working as a team. One especially meaningful moment was watching a student independently greet a customer, confirm their order, and complete the transaction with confidence. These are skills that don't always show up in traditional classroom settings, but they truly shine in this environment.\r\n\r\nYour support is helping our students take meaningful steps toward employment and greater independence, and we are deeply grateful for your investment in their future.","fullyFundedDate":1758807380351,"projectUrl":"project/adaptive-espresso-machine-increases-acce/9748740/","projectTitle":"Adaptive Espresso Machine Increases Access, Inclusion, and Skill-building for All.","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2930257_orig.jpg?crop=757,757,x737,y293&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1728078796476","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/coffeecartproject"},{"teacherId":2930257,"projectId":9014241,"letterContent":"Thank you again for your generosity.

Thanks to your generous support, our students have gained invaluable skills that will benefit them for years to come. They've learned how to read and transfer orders, operate an espresso machine (including the grinder and steamer), and deliver both hot and cold lattes. In addition to these technical skills, the students have developed strong customer service abilities and are gaining confidence as they interact with customers.\r\n\r\nThe feedback on both our coffee and the students' customer service has been overwhelmingly positive, and as demand continues to grow, we're considering expanding by purchasing another espresso machine. We're also excited to offer this opportunity to more students at the TA in the future, providing them with the chance to develop these essential skills. It's been incredibly rewarding to watch the students grow, not only in their technical skills but also in their sense of pride and accomplishment. The Brew Crew is truly taking pride in their work and in themselves, and we couldn't be more excited for what the future holds. This all would not have been possible without the support of donors like you, and we are deeply grateful for your contribution to this meaningful project.","fullyFundedDate":1728324844187,"projectUrl":"project/brewing-bright-futures-a-coffee-cart-fu/8850782/","projectTitle":"Brewing Bright Futures: A Coffee Cart Fundraiser","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2930257_orig.jpg?crop=757,757,x737,y293&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1728078796476","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/coffeecartproject"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_104607","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":36,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":13,"percentAsian":40,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":38,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"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":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":104607,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Transition Academy - 87th Street on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Transition Academy - 87th Street","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/lake-washington-school-district-414/transition-academy/104607"}
